Even in my country, where driving tests are usually taken in cars fitted with a manual transmissions (automatics at the driving test here are IIRC only allowed for disabled drivers), it's not so unusual to see teenagers more favorable to the automatics than when I had their age.

My maternal grandmother used to be extremely unfavorable to automatics, and then she bought one 9 years ago.
