My boys 88-89 BMW 325i didnt need the clutch in to start it back when he had it in highschool. Fun car to drive when you're a 16yr old teenager. Goes over speed humps at 90mph like a DREAM! True floater that **** car was..

Engaged refers to the clutch pedal position as fully off the floor, that is: in gear. 
(before Ike the Icon here hits his 'stick,' his clutch gotta' be engaged! AND 'disengaged' when he be whangin' the stick)
