I taught my daughter to drive in the car we used to bring her home from the hospital - a 1994 Camry DX with a 5 speed. It was a great experience and I think she is a better driver because of the extra effort she had to put into learning.
She now drives a 2006 Honda Civic EX with a 5 speed. It's a fun car to drive even if it isn't a Porsche. She is the only one of her peers that can drive a car with a manual transmission.
When she was 16, she was at a church-sponsored work camp. She was walking with a group of kids past a Jeep with a stick shift. One of the guys on the trip remarked, "That's a man's car." She asked why and he told her that it had a manual transmission. She let him know that she would be able to handle it.
