...and, I'm getting the hang of it. The first opportunity was in an 06 Cobalt LS 5-speed. The clutch work came pretty easy, and finding the gears was not far behind.
The second opportunity was tonight, and...
...well...
...let's just say that 394 hp makes it a slightly different game. The clutch was definitely stiffer than the Cobalt, and finding the gears took some time. I never left the parking lot, however, it was awesome.

That's looks fun!
I mean..
The fastest manual car I ever drive is an stock Evo VII RS. And it's only have 280-ish hp..

It actually belongs to 2 recently graduated college friends of mine (twins). I'm surprised they even let me drive it, given they bought it 2 months ago.

That Evo VII RS sounds like it would be a lot of fun, too.

Go find a hill with a stop light then the fun really begins.

I've only ever driven low powered BMWs, but having driven manual all my life, it always takes a slight adjustment.
I always find BMW clutches to require a little more accuracy and to be a little less forgiving.
Or I could just be a bit rubbish.
