Hey guys, new owner of a 2012 Versa HB here. Browsing through the web looking for a bit of instruction on how to drive stick I found this site dedicated to the Versa entirely and I figured I'd join the fun. The community seems to be friendly and helpful, so I hope I'll make a mess of friends and get lots of tips from you folks.

As I said earlier, my Versa is a stick shift and it's actually my first car that I've purchased using my own money. I'm capable of driving it around the neighborhood and surrounding areas but I've yet to venture out into the open slopes and heavy traffic areas. The blue bomber in my avatar is the set of wheels, of course.

Anyway, that's about all I have for now. My first posts will probably be to inquire about how to drive a bit better with my six speed shifter...and yeah!
Glad to be a part of this community, and I look forward to speaking with you all!

Welcome to the forums. Having driven a stick shift before, I offer this: Take it slow, try to even out the clutch and accelerator pedals not one or the other too quick. If so, you will either stall or burn rubber.

Welcome. I drive a 5speed(1.6 motor). I'd suggest getting used to the clutch before you "jump in the pool."
