I have been driving manuals my entire driving life. I love the clutch. From day one, I found it very easy to use and modulate. The shifter felt a little rubbery when new, but now it just feels light and slides like butter. IMO, it is very easy to pull off lightening fast shifts in this car. Yes, the shifter could be better weighted, but I am really just fine with it.
