Not going to lie, if I were to steal a car, and I saw it was manual... Nope. Dont feel like waking them up with the sound of grinding gears.

And the sound of the engine?
 
So you see, learning to drive with stick shift is always preferable than auto... with stick you can easily learn to drive auto, but with auto it's harder to learn stick

I have a manual now, but automatic ftw imo.
Automatic ftw indeed, but shifting as fast as possible makes me feel like I'm racing :megusta:
 
Going on a flat surface? Use the clutch and coast for a bit. Or while going down hills. Much easier to use the clutch than to shift to neutral in an automatic.

I was talking about shifting as soon as possible without using the gear to it's fullest.

I heard coasting it can damage the the gearbox :l

Wat
It just releases the connection of the gears to the engine.

Coasting = holding clutch in while still moving?
So? Clutch releases the mechanical connection between the engine and the gearbox, where should it damage something?
