Anyone with a manual transmision or anyone whos ever owned a manual transmission would be MORE than familliar with this. Too bad we're not like the europeans... they've seen the ways of manual shifts for years and we're stuck on automatics... different culture... then again gas is $2.50/L there too instead of $1
