19th MT here

 

Been driving mostly manuals since ~1959 - except when I was married to a woman who wouldn't and couldn't drive a stick and we could barely afford one car.

I reckon the Fit (when it's delivered) will be my 5th stick.

Oh - I forgot one - so it will be #6.

And all my motorcycles have been manual

 

This will be manual car #5. This might make me sound old but my first manual was a 65 Chevy II with a 3 on the tree

 

Too many to count!!!

11th car the past 10 have moved on.......

6th manual our of them!

 

hehe me too! gratz ^^

 

3rd car, 1st manual.

the fit is my 5th car, i had a corolla (auto), civic hatch (manual), 240sx (manual), civic coupe (manual), fit (auto), and civic hatch (manual)

i just picked up the civic hatch 2 days ago...

 

Jazz VTEC A/T is my fourth car bought with my own money

 

4th manual car, and my 8th car. I feel it's time for another Honda.

 

My fit (manual sport, when it arrives) will be only my second new car, but I've had many manuals. My first car was a 1980 Civic, manual. I've also had a manual Tercel, manual Accord, and manual Corolla. Our minivan is of course an automatic.

Hurrr means here.. The thread is asking "Is this your first car/first manual car?" so i believe here means both.

 

If Honda marketers were thinking they were aiming at first time buyers -- based on the FitFreak poll, they blew it!

 

The Fit is car #6 for me and my 4th manual transmission.

It is probably the smoothest shifting m/t that I have owned. The other 3 were a Nissan Sentra, Honda Civic, and Toyota Tacoma. The only other m/t that was close to it in refinement was the Civic.

 

this is my second car....1st manual car...1st car that I have bought myself

 

This will be my 6th car.
3rd M/T
1st BRAND NEW CAR I've ever bought!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Second manual. Don't think I'll be going back to auto any time soon!

First new car though.

 

My very first car!

 

the fit is gunna b my first car :P silver storm metallic base automatic ftw LoL

Cool! We're both getting such an awesome car for our first ones.

I got a vivid blue pearl sport automatic, and I'm loving it.

 

First *NEW* car, and first car I actually chose!

I tried to learn MT on my friends escort. We got one lesson down, and I was doing fairly well, then it died! My main thing was not believing I was in the propper gear, the bag over the stick made me doubt my positioning. I've seen cars that have a very absolute no bag this is the gear you are in and there is no doubts about it.

If I could get over that, I'd go MT.
