Maybe it's because I've always felt that every single part of this car will snap off or bend or crumble if held, twisted, or pushed too firmly that I handle the driving inputs the same way.
I never stomp on any of the pedals. I brake lightly, ease the clutch out and roll on the gas. I don't know why, but unlike any other car I've ever owned, I have this compulsion to be smooth in this car.
And this has started to affect how I drive my other cars, too.
I pay more attention to getting double-clutched downshifts just right, to dropping in without using the synchros at all.
It could be a Zen thing, but more likely I'm just becoming an old fart.
