In manual cars is the 0-60 accurate everytime? I never drove one before, but i was thinking about buying one. Will the time always be the same? LIke switching gears and stuff, don't you have to do it right and no one is perfect, so you know what I mean.

I am reminded that in bracket racing, it is consistency that wins not the fastest time.
The shift points are chosen by the driver, as well as throttle position (pedal).
There is also the problem of missing a shift with a manual.
For consistent 0-60 times an automatic is preferred.
For quicker 0-60 times a stick will be better for a given car.
I used to have problems down-shifting and turning a car on a winding road. Now it is second nature to me.
As some one said with experience comes perfection.
I know of many who curse rev limiters in manuals, but being a person that will wind an engine out for all it is worth, it is my engines best Friend. (I used to push a Corolla 2tc to 85 MPH in second but at 35 MPH it was already turning 8 grand)

Well I think They are really Accurate and more controllable They are a little Hard to Drive at first But when u learn you can Practically Drive any other car in the world (Don't worry about the switching Gears All that u need to learn first is the clutch)

No. In a manual car pretty much everything depends on you. The car will go at speeds you choose depending on what gear you are using and the timing of your shifts. It is actually a lot more fun to drive a manual b/c of the fact of you deciding how the car drives and not the car deciding for you. I would def. recommend a manual.

manuals are a bit hard to drive at first but you mainly need to learn how to use the clutch and the speed from 0-60 depends on how quick you are at shifting at the right time

You must be a good driver (shifter) to get the best 0-60 times. You will get better thr more you drive a manual shift.

Depends when you shift, if you take it all the way up to redline then yeah it should be pretty much the same time, unless you mess up.
