370Z Newb Pwnag

I almost had to pull out the owners manual, then the light click. The embarrassing thing was that I had a line of cars waiting to pump gas behind me.

I just bought the car, the guy pulled it around and parked it, we went over the checklist, he gave me the keys and said enjoy it. He walks away and I go to put it into reverse and ....

All I'm getting is 6th. Now I tried everything to get it into reverse, tried to find a collar to lift, push it through a gate w/ resistance (i.e. BMW), everything.

I run in to the dealership to find the guy and am like, uh, how do you put the car in reverse? haha.

That's when I found out that you had to push the stick down and then over to get it in reverse. And yes, I did test drive the car before I bought it, but I never had to back it out.

LOL... I was fumbling for reverse today too. Some chick almost reversed into me while she was trying to leave the service area while I was parked behind her. I was like... "NOOOOOoOOOO, not my car!!!" The scene unfolded like a bad action movie slow motion scene. Luckily, I got out of there in time.
