Get used to not shifting with a manual trans. In a few years they won't be around, at least not on high end performance cars like these.

Man that brings back good memories from high school, gas was cheap I had a big V8, 4:10 gears, 4speed Hurst shifter with a racing clutch harder than a week old bagel and these 15" tires. Life was good
