Manual ?
 

I am relatively new to the manual world. I can shift just fine and everything but was wondering what some terms mean and how I can learn to do them: Heel toeing, speed shifting, downshifting w/o clutch. Anyone know about these I read about them in car mags all the time but haven't been able to get anyone to explain them to me.

wow! no wonder you Da Man! Very well explained!

I'm going through the same kinda thing.

Wondering if I should waste $800 + tax of my money for an auto, or save that money and get a manual.

Thanks for the advice I was trying it out today very useful on the corners. As for getting a manual I would look at what conditions you drive in. If you have a lot of hills or do lots of driving in stop in go I would get an auto unless you want to give your left leg a major workout. Auto's will be much slower and more expensive to repair if something goes wrong. I didn't get a chance to drive an auto pro. We just looked at manuals. I do know that my contour is quite a bit slower than the manual contours but was much easier to drive when I was in a hilly city (duluth).
