When I married my wife she already knew how to drive a stick....so her transition to my then ride...... '73 911T Porsche Targa, and later the vangons, was not an issue. I did have to break her of the habit of leaving it in gear when parked....went through several starters first. Anthony '89 Syncro GL (Hidalgo)
