^Not when the clutch is completely gone. When I was driving my old hatch w/ a bad clutch it finally gave out on me in the middle of traffic on waters ave. I had to get towed home. When I dropped the tranny something that looked like "sawdust" fell out of it. Hey RB drop me a pm about the coupe and/or this car if the coupe hasn't sold yet. Thanks & BuMp.
