I first learned how to drive manual in an 02 Neon SXT. To me, it's been the easiest car to pick up and go.

There not bad to get used to. you will feel it when your starting to drive the car. There is one thing that sometimes discourages people from buying a srt-4 and im just wondering if you have thought about it. Most people really beat the hell out of them and the people who do take care of them wont get rid of them. I hope if you do get one you dont have any problems with it and it works out for you. Good luck

You should get used to it in less than a minute of driving. Things like this come back quickly. I learned to drive stick in my Dad's old '56 VW Beetle when I was 10 or 11 I think. Trust me. Once you get going from a stop sign a couple times, you'll get it back.

I can never find a SRT4 for sale here. I see a few on them every once in a while driving around.

4,000 miles you better grab that while you can I dont think it has been abused unless its beed rebuilt. Better check it out better.

Get a Car Fax report on it. Man that sounds almost to good to be true.
