no problem man...i feel your pain. When i get my S (which will be new to me..my first S) i'm going to have to teach my girl how to drive a stick....lol

the thing with a manual i think is...you either get it the first time or its going to be really really really hard.

i learned to drive a stick when i first started working for darcars and they sent me to get a car from fairfax (wrangler)..and it was a stick and i've never driven a stick before but i knew the basics of how to drive one. Basically i was on the 66 in traffic learning on a brand new wrangler..lol

better to learn on someone elses car then your own i guess...you could always talk to other people that have stick and see if they will let her learn the basics of stick first before she does destroying your clutch

tru tru.........but i dont think she's really gonna be able to destroy the clutch that easily sinec its the act clutch. Its almost and on and off thing... so its not as hard to slip it cuz it grabs so well.

Even when i was over 300 whp it grabbed like hell.

Hopefully she'll do good......SO SHE CAN DRIVE ONCE IN AWHILE.... sheesh.
