Found out something interesting the other day
I have had a few manual transmission cars before but this is the first one I have seen where if you keep the clutch engaged and car gets to 5 mph, it will keep going at that speed and not stall out.
The last manual I had was around a decade ago and it was an 88 M3, I know for sure this did not have it. When did car manufactures starting adding this wonderful new feature? ![]() |

Yes torque! It sure is nice in heavy traffic when you can just slowly
let the clutch out and roll slowly at 4 or 5MPH with very little clutch or brake use. That is the greatness of 455 lb-ft. |

Has nothing to do with torque. My 2002 chevy s10 with a 4 cylinder engine did this also LOL. Most manual cars have a speed to where momentum will keep it going without stalling.
