Yeah, I am sure it is all relative, and I am definitely no connoisseur of stick shifts. My only real frame of reference was the 5-speed in the two Mazda 6's I had before I got my first BMW. Part of it was the shifter, but also it felt like I had to use my whole leg to use the clutch in the M240, rather than mostly foot/ankle. Although, I suppose I could use more exercise in my life...

I'd listen!
Hahaha. That is for sure true. I woke up wanting to go try it again, but the salesman knows I'm not serious about that car, as it's a convertible.
