Hi everyone! Just wanted to say how much I appreciate this website! It has helped me immensely by overcoming my anxiety's as a n00b stick driver.
First stick car
2014 WRX - Purchased 4/26/14
My roommate drove it home for me. She taught me the basics over the weekend and was off to work the following Monday. Talk about anxiety!!
Second
2010 MINI Cooper S - Purchased 5/26/14
The Subaru just didn't fit my style. Was too plain and the gas mileage was hurting my wallet (People don't buy WRX's or STI's because it gets great gas mileage lol)
3rd and final purchase for this year.
2013 JCW (John Cooper Works) - Purchased 11/28/14
After driving the S for a couple months. I realized that I should have gotten the JCW to begin with. I've learned the basics and some advanced stuff like rev-matching. Now with the JCW, i'm taking my sweet time to really get a feel for the clutch and proper shifting etiquette.
Thanks and hello!
