regardless everyone has to start somewhere. No one can drive stick perfectly especially when its their first time driving it.

I learned how to drive stick in my Integra LS after I bought it. Just buy your new Z, and drive around the neighborhood for a few hours on the weekend. It may be a little frustrating at first...but you'll get it.

mmm fyi. if your going to learn. civic is the easiest...but one thing you have to remember is that if its a 00 or below civic/integra the clutch pedal is longer than the 01- and up cars. So....it may be a lil easier to learn a on a newer car esp since ur going to be buying an 04 z. Just some advice. i learned this summer on my old 240 and ive gotten the hang of it. just drive everyday and u'll get it. Ever since learning i love it...cept traffic, but its not as bad.
