Manual Transmission question.

Spike88 · 02-18-09, 06:03 PM

I'm planning on getting a manual mustang in the next 3-5 years. When funds allow. The only problem is I don't know how to drive manual. I'm wondering if I should just buy a POS car for 2-3 thousand, and just practice manual in that. Or wait until I can afford the car and risk killing my clutch. Opinions.

Edit: As a side note depending on the exact car, a clutch for most of the newer mustangs runs from 200-500. Which is cheaper, but I'd have to have someone put it in which could run up to 1 thousand and above.
