i learned to drive a manual when i was about 14-15 yrs old. it was not that difficult to learn. it takes practice to get the hang of it. i have switched from manual shift cars to automatics. now i am back with my manual shift Camaro because i wanted more excitement and horse power. i drive through heavy traffic sometimes and its not so bad shifting gears all of the time. it depends on your attitude on whether or not it will get tedious. especially in stop and go traffic. get what impresses you the most.
