pick up point is weird, I had to be careful to drive it smooth. No stall though.

Didn't stall in my test drive but I've stalled several times since I've owned it ( and I've be driving manuals for 20 years).

The last time I stalled a manual was the second time I drove my '95 Civic beater... So rubbery in gear after I started it I thought it was in neutral so I depressed the clutch. I would consider that excusable.

But this? Sheesh

did you ever drive an 07 model sedan 6MT before it had the clutch recall? even after the recall, it still kinda sucks
