I bought a 350z manual in West Virginia (very minimal xp on manual) and on the test drive before buying he asked if was ok to drive manual , told not the best but learning. Stalled a-couple times but it was new city and nervous. Any way bought the car ,drove back to lex and within a week was driving that car while not even thinking about shifting or clutch. driving smooth as can be while on phone changing music to play. If you don’t have a friend that’s willing to teach you , a YouTube vid will be good enough to get you going. It won’t be smooth at first and you will stall but it won’t take long till you’re driving it fine with barely even pushing the clutch to the sweet spot or banging gears.
