Default Back from 02 IS300 test drive

Just test drove a 5speed IS 300. Wow!!! I didnt't want to leave it. So much fun. Engine sounds amazing. Suspension is kinda bumpy, but not as bad as my lowered Civic. It gives a better sporty feel. The clutch felt kinda weird though. When i release it, it feels like its sticking or something. Is this normal? Or maybe i'm comparing it too much to my basic Civic clutch. I was so close to buying the car, but was very dissapointed with the colour. It was a rare colour. Something like a light gold and had beige interior.No Thanx!!! Better luck next time

yes the clutch is normal, caused by the famous (and imho stupid) CDD. you can disable it of course
