i am vietnamese and all i mean all my friends drives a civic or integra.

 

My first car was a stick and I had no idea how to drive it. I made it home though and have been a "stick" man every since...,

I am amazed there isn't more flame on the asian comment though :-)

 

The first time I drove stick, was driving my car back from the dealership;note the dealer told me it was a lot like a motorcycle just that the way you operate it is different, but the concept is the same. I just took that into account and I was fine . Aww man I can still remember the smile on my face as I hauled ass, and took some sweet turns on my s2k. I came from a Toyota tc so when I got this "pure blooded" sports car I was in love .

 

Definitely a good idea.

 

take some driving lessons with a driving school. 10 lession for like 300 bucs.

oh, past the test drive, let the owner/dealer/friend drive it for u.

 

Alright thanks for all the answers guys!

 

Just get the salsman to take you out on a lonely road for an hour or so.
You'll be driving like a simi-pro for a week or two and then a pro for life thereafter.

 

like......?

 

do what everyone else is saying get a friend that knows who to drive a stick. cant really trust a salesman.

 

Ha ha! Too Asian. I should get me a Civic Si cuz everyone around here mistakes me for being Mexican LOL. But then again, I'm a hybrid.
