IT was odd having to shift, anytime I got near a hill I was a bit worried, but drive by drive, day by day I just got more used to it.
Now it's kinnda funny because I'll get in a car and when I go to start it, my leg naturally goes looking for the clutch.

it's because you've spent SO much time driving an Auto. I was like that as well when I got my first Manual. It was an '86 Mazda B2000 with power NOTHING.

He came to my work, picked up my junkie car, and returned later w/ a Ford Ranger.
Gave me the keys and said, "Do you know how to drive stick?".
I said, "Nope." He said, "Well you better learn if you want to get home."

Ha, I learned to drive a stick when I was 17. I had a used car, and my dad was looking for something more reliable for me.
He came to my work, picked up my junkie car, and returned later w/ a Ford Ranger.

I drove the truck for YEARS till some biotch T-boned my dad when he borrowed it one day.
I upgraded to a Pontiac Fiero after that. That little V6, 4 speed manual ROCKED!
(although the rear engine was a P.I.T.A. to work on)

the more things change
don't drop it something might break..
the guy i bought my car from did not tell that
the battery was no good.. now i have to buy
a new battery, and it's only a year old. but the car
was not being used so i guess the battery just died.

it's easy i used to rebuild chevy's and fords.
also some Japanese engines. but that was long
ago. now i just sit back and listen, cause the new
stuff is way over my head. if i took it apart i could
put it back together, now it's just to much crap.

Kev, you may find some GREAT deals on 08 40th Anniversary models in automatic. that totally seems like your color & style. and, it's a great looking car. (did i mention how awesome the interior is?)
at least go take a look at them before ruling them out.
