Not a drastic difference, more that my muscle memory had adjusted to expecting the engagement point higher or lower in the pedal throw depending on the shift (1-2 vs 2-3 vs 3-4, etc.). So for example I was making a shift after a turn from 2-3 and I let out fast at the bottom and slow at the top like I normally would with the CDV because the engagement point on that shift is usually high, only to be shocked that the engagement point came earlier then expected, right around where 1-2 normally is.

My comment was more of an exaggeration. I'm not learning how to drive manual overall, just relearning how to drive manual on this car.
