Hey, just curious. I've driven 5spd vehicles for over 10 years and for some reason this one has given me the hardest time for first gear. Either it wants to die cuz not enough gas or rip its wheels off. Clutch is VERY sensetive. This normal for these cars?? I'm getting used to it and better, but it actually requires me to think about what I'm doing.

Totally normal.

After about 1000 miles on the tranny, it will feel alot better.

Welcome and nice car.

I had the same problem. the clutch will adjust to how you use it eventually. Again, congrats on the new car!

Welcome to the site, buddy!!! Glad to hear we've got another new member.

I never got used to the clutch on my SS... I stalled it a couple times a week the entire time I owned it... some of the guys here can vouch for my driving woes
