6sp (manual) question

A&Q about 350Z
Q:

Guys,
I am looking to buy a Z tonight. Anyways, I drove it once a few months ago, but never had a chance to use 6th gear or reverse.
Is the 6th gear next to reverse? Is there a way you can accidently put it in reverse while trying to put it in 6th gear.
I have driven the S2000, which you have to push it down in order to go into reverse. Do you do that with the Z too?? I am just a little paranoid.
Thanks,
Tony

dont worry about it, it wont happen-the gear box wont allow it too. and u have to be a suck ass driver to do that anyways. just dont worry about it.

You have to push down the shift knob and then shift to get it into reverse.
