Some good news. My little cousin just got an 03 350Z 6MT and he's gonna start coming to the MD meets with me. As an added bonus, I finally have a car that I can learn/practice driving manual with. Took it for a spin today and I can definitely see why driving a manual is so fun. Thanks again Rob for teaching me that day! Still need to get used to getting off the clutch slowly and smoothly, but i had no issues driving it on the road.

Also as a side effect, I really want to test drive a 5.0 now with the brembo package using my newly acquired 6MT skills

You're quite welcome, glad you're good enough to feel ok driving on the street. Now just do it as much as you can and you'll get used to it in no time :-p

Don't do it unless you have $35k saved up.

Can't get a loan in my name and my parents would never be ok with it, so I'm good.

Besides, I still need some time to get more used to driving a manual before I'm ready for some test drives.

30 degrees out in Fairfax right now. Don't know if we'll have any grip to give 5.0 rides today... we'll slide off the road. Damn summer tires.

But I HAVE to drive like an a$$hole to show you the hype.

True, should be 50* around 10AM.

m4a1mustang · 11-12-2011, 08:08 AM

It is dirty, though, so I won't be showing you a clean car.
