The Z is not "hard to drive" at all. An 18-wheeler with 22 forward gears is "hard to drive". The Z just magnifies clumsy clutch action and shifting, which becomes apparent by the herky-jerky shifts you'll get.
On the Z, the clutch and transmission require some finesse to make the gear transitions smooth. If you're stalling the car, you're missing some core fundamentals to manual transmission operation. If you'd like to try driving a manual car that's truely 'hard to drive', go try out an early Jaguar X-type manual. The clutch was fully engaged about 1/4" off the floor. If you stall the Z, you'll never get the X-type moving.
