Congrats on getting a fun car.
I remember my first car, i bought a well used 1978 Honda Civic, 2 door hatchback, manual. I had no experience at all with a manual and this was before the internet was a place to find how to videos. I learned through my mistakes, forgetting to downshift to first gear at a stop light and stuff. Unfortunately, when I bought the car through a credit union sale, the underside of the hood was covered in oil splatter which I did not know indicated potential serious engine troubles ahead, it ended up having a crack in the block. I was a newbie driver and owner at that time. This was before lemon laws. It was stressful at times but fun to learn to drive a manual.
