I learned on a stick back in '79. The only automatics I have ever owned were a '65 LeMans with a 2-speed power slush box, and a '67 Riviera with the 454ci and 3-speed auto. Here in Japan, the driving test is a bitch, and you have a choice- if you test on an auto, you can only drive auto. If you test on the manual, you can drive anything (they also test above or below 700cc for the engine). I took the test on the stick, above 700cc. That being said, it's hard to find a non-sports car with a manual, but I drive a '95 Nissan Sunny with a stick.
