[SleeperWRX]

As stated, What car did you learn to drive a manual in? Sorry, misscourtney, this is a thread you cannot post in.

First manual car I EVER drove was a Fiat 600 (don't know what year, it was in the 50's though lol.)
I learned in a 95 Civic coupe, lol.

LMFAO I forgot about that car, they were HORRIBLE.

I learned in an IT Civic road race car.

Well my dad is a VW guy so I happened to fall into it too. But I don't like watercooled VWs much anymore.

I'm enjoying the Rodeo though. I had to replace the Camshaft Position Sensor and the CEL bulb to get it to pass emissions. I just put a nice set of new Kumho tires on it. Thats all I'm going to do with it since its just a parts hauler for my other cars.

Yeah, it was a great car when he had it. The clutch and few other parts went out in the jetta, lol.

The clutch went out? That is surprising, but things happen.
