Picked up my new 6MT beast!

..And all I can say is wow!

Jerez already dirty () but gee whiz all I can say is, how I have missed the mighty stick shift! So much fun rowing through the cogs.

Apologies for the shoddy iPhone pic, will get some better pics up when I get her a proper clean this weekend. Tint going in next week.

Still getting the hang of the clutch, my stop starts are very jerky at the moment.

WRT run in, have been keeping it upper 4.5k RPM but not really babying the throttle. I haven't taken it WOT but have definitely given it some beans.

My car is completely bone stock, not even tint, and you pretty much inspired me to black out my kidney grills (my car is black too). Might hop on Mod Bargains tonight...

Will get you some better shots to show you how good it looks on black. Tint going in next week. I also have aluminium OEM pedals which look great as well.
