Request for someone with manual

Hi all, I just recently test drove a automatic and dearly loved it but my heart is yearning for a manual once again. I'm hoping to be purchasing a Fit soon and so far the dealership only has automatics, I've read many folks complaining about the lack of a dead pedal and I for one am happy to see that there is none. I have a beat up left knee that likes to "lock up" while I'm on the road for awhile and I need to have room to extend my left leg. As I drove the auto I was happy to see that there was indeed enough room for me to extend my leg, not alot but enough so my request is can someone take a picture of their left foot next to the clutch so I can get a idea of how much room is there. I hope this makes sense.

I can do it after work. There is a good amount of room there. Hardly any less room to the left of the clutch pedal than the room to the left of the automatic's brake pedal. i know this because i drive a manual fit and my fiance drives an automatic fit.

I feel that when I drive bare foot I am more one with the Fit and my spirit is in tune with the road. My mind is at peace when I drive without my shoes on. JK, I just stepped out into my garage real quick for the photo and didn't put my shoes on for it.
