I drove a Ford F-150 when I was 12, my dad let me drive it sometimes if there wern't too many other cars out.
I learned stick on an '86 jetta when I was 15.
I bought my FB a few months before I turned 16, and now it's the only car I like driving. The other 2 cars I drive sometimes are VERY boring now that I'm used to driving the 7.

Learned to drive in a 95 (?) suburban at age 12.
learned stick in my dad's C5,
really learned stick (ie burnouts, shifting fast, smoothness, blah blah) on the FD
I also raced Go-Karts for 3 or so years starting at age 11. That helped.

I learned to drive on my 15th B-day, in a 5 speed 4x4 Pathfinder, wasn't allowed to drive again for 3 months cause I almost rolled it into a gator pond backwards. (thats what they get for not telling me how to park on a steep incline) then at 16 had a 93 MR2 5 speed that got me hooked to sporty cars
