Scariest thing in the world. No exaggeration at all. 

 remember back to our driving days!  i know this does not help, sry! 

 Oh yeah! It was a manual 6 speed Toyota Celica 💜 

 fun car & remember it well 

 i was thinking 5 speed though, maybe a different model or could be i need a new brain  

 You might be right, might have been a 5 speed. Early 80's model, good times.
