My youngest son wanted a car with a stick when he first got his license. I was adamant the he have an automatic. After he was driving for about a year, the car we got him a 2000 Volvo C70 convertible was on its last legs and did get him a car with a stick.

He then realized that there is much more to do when driving a stick and it was a good idea to actually learn how to drive for a year or so before adding the extra skills for a stick.

Now he bugs me all the time to drive the Boxster.
