I bought my 89 CRX Si just to learn standard on.
The previous owner had replaced the clutch (48xxx km's ago), so I figured there was still a lot of life on it lol. My bf and I would drive around his acreage in Bearspaw on little hills and cul-de-sacs till I finally worked up the courage to drive it on the main roads (after a week of 1/2hr driving each day).
When I finally got the hang of 5-speed, I sold the car lol.
Good luck
