This is my first stick car and it's a challenge, but I'm really trying to get a hang of this. I complained about the clutch in the 350Z, but refinement and smoothness have made the 370Z's clutch lack feel and feedback. It catches high and it's going to require muscle memory to remember where exactly it grabs. I'm not ashamed to say this, but I was practicing starting and stopping in a parking lot, and I stalled the car a little more than 10 times in the span of 45 minutes. Towards those last 15-20 minutes, I got progressively better, to the point where I'd do close to 20 starts without a stall...and when I did finally stall, it was thanks to an itch.
But I'm determined to be perfect at this, because like someone said, I'm in love. I'm a huge gearhead, and while I loved my 350Z, the 5AT wasn't cutting it for me, as far as fun factor...and the interior's cheapness really grew thin. The car is pretty filthy right now. I'm going to clean it up tomorrow and post some pics.
