If she wants to learn, And is interested in a manual? Get her a beater manual to learn on.
As you see Im looking at what she would want NOT what I would want.
Remember she's the one driving it and she wants it manual? she'll ask for it.
You could always teach her later on  |
You see, but should the kid get to decide? Most kids would pick the easier path. How many kids want to learn more than bare minimum? And this is a skill that will make them a better driver long term and give them flexibility if the only car available is a stick.
Again, I'd buy her whatever, but I'd still insist she learn stick, just to learn it, especially if you own a manual vehicle already.
