Default G2 driving test in s2000?

i have a g2 test and im taking the s2000 to give the test in. the test location is orange ville. do you think they would mark me differently than if i took the normal Toyota corolla.... and do they mark you differently if its a manual car?

Im pretty sure they will mark you on your gear shifting as well. Take the Corolla, don't hassle yourself with the trouble.

theres a lot more "little" things that you need to look out for. For example, you cannot shift between intersections, when stopped, you should be in gear, and you always need to down shift. Imaging going through an intersection through first gear going to 4 or 5 grand LOL!..

Que? In gear when stopped? What would be the reasoning behind that? Not sure I understand what the reasoning on not shifting gears in intersections either. Changing lanes, yes.. gear shifting.. WTF?

Anyone ever drive an E36 BMW? First gear is purely cosmetic.
