gettin the s/c balt in a few weeks

Hey everyone. ya so I'm getting the balt in a few weeks (2007) hopefully on my bday (present to myself woot! ) with the lsd and was wondering what you Toronto guys were walking out the door with. I also need to know how wide this car is mirror to mirror (i have a narrow driveway about 84 inches wide).

This will be my first car with stick so I'm a little nervous. Believe it or not the first time a drove stick was on my buddies mazda 3 about a month ago and i didn't stall, it wasnt smooth by any means but it worked. However when i went to test drive the balt i stalled 3 times in a row without even moving lmao go figure.

Also, im planning on going up to those Tuesday meets up at dundas and learning as much as I can about these sweet cars. for I am noob here me RAWR

Sweet! Have fun and stay safe! And don't worry about it being your first car with stick, this one was my first as well.

hmmmm...for you, ill measure mine.

i would say it is about 79 inches from the tip of each mirror.


sounds like a snug fit.
