2nd car, First new one, first manual. My old car was a 99 neon 3 speed auto with 160000 mi (yeah, i know POS ) i was pretty well trained on the manual when I got the FIT though.

 

Not my first car, not my first manual car... But my first NEW car...

 

Not my first car (that was a BMW 733 Mi), not my first manual car, but my first new car AND my first car with automatic. Except for my job-cars this is my third car.
First I had was a BMW 733 Mi, that was sold after just 6 month, to expencive to own; Inurance, fuel and so on.
Second was an old Vauxhall 2300, good old GM car with tough and heavy steel and a really bad heating system for the coupé. After that I did not have any car since I got the cars from my job; first a Renault Kangoo, and now a Toyota Yaris Verso.
So getting a new Honda Jazz is going to be very exciting, and even with an automatic gear is going to be even more exciting and intresting.

But then again, I live in Norway were only 34% of the cars have automatic transmissions...

 

This will be my first car and first manual. I would appreciate a topic on how to drive stick on this forum if someone would take the time to explain. I generally know how to use stick but I just want to know what I should look out for in this car. I'm still waiting for my SSM to come in.
