He could have bounced the limiter or double shifted, it is possible.

That is yet another reason I want a manual trans, I won't **** that up, I'll just beat you.

I should also mention, the reason for this thread was to hear real people talking about cars they purchased with their own money.

Thanks for the feedback, you make great points.

Like you, I have a 94 fbody, z28 6spd, that I am slowly modding up to get my real performance kicks. Fully overhauled and upgraded suspension care of UMI and soon to have a built LSx engine.

Tell you what guys/gals, I drove a 2013 Accord Coupe EX-L V6 with the 6spd manual tonight. Sorry to say, the subaru can't compare. The sound, power, and list of options far outdo the Limited Legacy...

Funny you say that. I have friends with Jetta, Gli, GTi, CC, and Passats. They have all had service issues with their cars for one thing or another. I am not thrilled with that aspect.
