Some but not all manuals do this. If you have a car with low torque or that is heavy it will not take off with no throttle.

No that’s normal - it’s what a clutch does: let it out friction on the plates occurs and you move, the further out the pedal, the more friction. Eventually it’s fully out and the plates are maximally connected. Prior to that point it’s called “slipping the clutch”.
The antistall is that it automatically increases the revs a bit. I’d rather do that part myself

Ahhh right, i didn't know that. Anti stall or not I stalled a bucket load!!No that’s normal - it’s what a clutch does: let it out friction on the plates occurs and you move, the further out the pedal, the more friction.

was a lot better today, went to a carpark to get a better feel of the clutch, worth my time for sure. then went for a bit of a drive, feeling better about this manual thank god ahaha!
I didn't know about the anti-stall feature, so thanks for pointing this out.
I stalled the demo car as we were exiting the showroom parking lot on my test drive! And I've been driving manuals since before a lot of you guys were born.
In my first week of ownership I think I stalled about 5-6 times and it still happens occasionally now, after nearly 4 months.

It's not as smooth as a gravy sandwich to be fair.
My previous car (fk2 type r) was the same, there are sweet spots that can be found.

Takes some practice and a steady, persistent throttle foot.
It’s the biggest ratio change of all the changes. It’s going to be the “hardest” to get smooth.
Seems to happen to me most when I am trying to reverse into a parking space do you find that?
Getting there slowly, doesn't help with the lockdown and not being able to drive muchTakes some practice and a steady, persistent throttle foot.
hey man, given the lockdown in Victoria, so not too much driving, i've gotten the hang of driving manual in this car in about 3 weeks, confident enough to drive around as normal. not perfect, but good enough to drive around. i've been driving a bit more now and i'd say each week i can notice myself getting better at it. this is given my 0 experience before this car. at times i thought i should have just bought an n-line, or a gti or waited for the DCT to come out but once i got the hang of it i've really enjoyed driving the manual and im happy i went with this car
if you are wondering how long it will take you, of course you may be faster/slower, i'd say 1 month of driving (especially in lockdown as you can take longer out and about cos there are no people on the roads so make the most of it). i had good timing because when i got it the roads were dead, now im noticing a few more people around.
just thought i'd update you in case you were still considering.
