    At what Age learned to drive and what Car?

    I'm curious at what year did you learn to drive...

    I learned a bit at 5 years old, but my first experience was at 6 years old, I drove alone a Jeep Wagoneer V8 automatic for sure, I was always tall at my age, so no problems with the pedals...

    At 10 years old I learned to drive manual trans...mostly in a Mercedez, that is cuiorsu, I should learned first in a BMW...and welll, when was the first time when I drove a bimmer?? mmm don't remember well at 11 years I think, and was a e28 if I'm correct... :D

    I didn't start driving until I got my permit right after my 15th birthday. The first car I drove was my dad's 535i.

    From there, I drove a Z3 as a loaner - I was able to learn how to drive a manual in this car (it was easier than out 528i Touring). Then my skills got better in out Toruing. And, here I am now. I've been driving for over two years now.

        i can't remember my exact age but i was real young so i picked 6-8. My dad took me around the block a few times in my grandma's old ford escort that she used to have a while back. Pretty funny stuff. I remember thinking that i was the king of the world after that.

          I learned when I got my permit oin a '91 Accord and a mid 90's Chrysler Town and Country. I didn't really learn manual until I got my car in June.

                  I started driving my dad's GM Monza back when I was 9-10 years old. IT was automatic though. When I was 12 I started driving my mother's Fiat Tipo. Fun times. 8)

                    At 14 my dad would take me to a parking lot and let me putt around in his GMC sierra automatic. At around 15 I took my, then sister's, '87 325 around the subdivision a couple times to learn how to drive a stick. I then got my permit at 15, full license at 16.

                      On my 13th birthday, my brother taught me how to drive stick in his '84 318i. It took me a little while to get the hang of it, but I could drive around through the gears after a couple weeks. (parking lots and stuff, no roads)

                            I started driving tractors at 5 around my grandparent's farm, then quads by age 7. My mom let me drive her VW beetle around the block somethimes by age 10, and I was driving my older friends car's all the time by 14-15. Got my permit the day I turned 15, and my license the day I turned 16. I got 100% on both my written and my in-car driving tests. I've been driving things just about as long as I can remember.

                              learned to drive at 15 in my mom's '91 Mercury Tracer wagon. That was one gay little car. So boring
                              taught myself stick in my 4spd RWD '86 Chevy S10 pick up. As slow as it was, it was a beast. It could not be killed.
