How'd you learn to drive stick? On an e30, of course!

When I was 16 on my girlfriend's '88 Honda Accord P.O.S. It was pretty sad :(

The girl I bought my first E30 from taught me how. In said E30. At 20.

THAT'S pretty sad.

The first one I ever drove without being coached was my first car. 1982 SAAB 900.

i learned on an 86' 900.

I learned on an 87 Volvo 240 5 speed.

I learned on 'The Mustard Monster', a yeller 1983 Volvo 245DL 4spd w/OD. What a slow, indestructible piece with dukey brown guts. That was at 14. By the time I was licensed, we had a 1989 745GL w 5spd and a sunroof. Another slow, even more indestructible car that was nice when we got it. We sold it to a friend after my brother scraped it up a bit and said friend proceeded to make videos of our old wagon smashing through just about anything at 60mph. He put another 35k on it and sold it with over 200k and some good training for a title run at the demolition derby. Because of this history, I have a soft spot for volvos that ignores all the quirky bullshit about them. I will always want to do a nasty 242 turbo. Maybe someday...

I learned on a MGB 4 speed haha.

The real question is, did you learn how to drive in a car with a manual or automatic transmission?

I learned in an auto.
