well thats the same as me when i just got my car... damn freaking hard to change lane & parking... but after a few times of driving it kinda get used to it... its just a matter of time.... enjoy your ride to the MAX! :D

The rubber smell is the smell of your clutch. Quite normal if you are shifting and accelerating fast.

Possibly?....could also be just the rubber parts (tubing, etc) in the engine getting used to rotary heat.
