Sterling, Since you have the manual transmission, try running at 30 to 35 mph in third gear when rpms are around 2000 and then hold steady speed. You should or may feel the engine almost feel like it is missing. If you are sitting still in neutral and barely bring it off idle and you may feel the same missing feeling in the engine. Let us know. I too can put the car into a lug situation 6th gear too early and it will pull clean, it's just one area that doesn't feel smooth that I can replicate in the two scenario's about. All you automatic guys, try to do the same thing off idle in park. If you can make it run rough sitting still, it isn't drive train it's engine tune.
