yeah planning on getting a wrx, soon hopefully within the next week so i can use the rebate =D. i was just wondering if the WRX was the first manual car for any of u guys. and if it was how long did it take you to learn? i know the basic concept just never driven one.

Welcome! The WRX was not the first manual for me......but there are several on this board that is was their first. Shouldn't take you long to get the hang of it......probably a couple days!

Enjoy

I drove a bunch of different manuals before getting in my suby. Its pretty embarassing your first time, but after a bit you get used to it and it comes natural. You'll find yourself trying to push in the clutch of automatic cars. If the car starts shaking push in the clutch. Chances are you aren't giving it enough gas or letting the clutch out too fast.
