Forte ES 2.0L

  • Manual transmission
  • 2,121 miles

very annoying starting from a dead stop in 2nd and you rev the motor and then it revs down and then you give it more gas and then the car kills itself. I've talked to the deal and complained about this. They said that the 5 and 6 speeds have rev restrictions on them.

when you try to start the car up right away it won't start. they also said that they won't start again for 5 seconds.

been driving manual since i could drive. very stupid restriction. Can't take off very fast.
