Question: MSP 2003.5 + New Driver = ?

[D3monix]

Good morning!

I'm looking at a titanium grey 2003.5 and I'm pretty sure I'm going to pick it up but the question remains My wife just got her Beginners license and would this car be too much for her to start out on?

I"m teaching her Stick on a beater that we have and she's pretty good.

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

no, actually this is a great car to learn on

the msp is not a real fast car but is fast enough to enjoy to the fullest, it handles like a dream (nearly impossible to get out of control unless you are purposely trying to or if you are just driving like an idiot), and the stock clutch/shifter combination is great (I learned stick on it and had the hang of it in about an afternoon)

No issues, power kicks in above 3000 RPM, so keeping the revs below 3000 makes it feel like a Protege 2.0.
