It would probably be a good idea to learn to drive a standard before you go out and buy one...

I think new STI owners will have the same problem, already I have heard of people choosing the wrong gear.

Hold on... if you are going 130mph and try to shift into 2nd, shoudln't it take the synchros about 4 or 5 seconds to catch that gear up???
If that guy still came off the clutch after noticing that it took a
very long time to engage that gear, then he needs an auto!!!

Honda synchros are really good. With sky-high redlines they need to be able to handle wide differences in engine speed, and also Honda's just really good at designing transmissions.
