GRIN, a lot!
I've always driven sticks, but can say I don't find the Viggen stick to be unusual in any way. Not a intuitive and precise as some, but far more so than the '86 900 we had years ago. I would only expect you to have stalling embarassments if you were switching to a very peaky, high rev car like a Honda S2000. Cars with little low end grunt can be tricky to launch. But the Viggen (or any turbo Saab) has so much bottom end that even if you release the clutch quickly or prematurely the car will take off anyway. Just don't jump on the gas in 2nd or 3rd unless you've got both hands on wheel and are ready to keep it in line! BUY THE VIGGEN!
