I think it would be far too hard; you should let me buy it for my son!
Seriously, though, my wife drove an automatic first and then had to learn how to drive our 1985 Hyundai Pony 4 speed. She had been driving autos for 3 years. She took about two weeks to be pretty good at it, but learned not to stall in the first day. She never did learn to shift perfectly, (ie: like I do
). She can drive my 300e 5 speed now and never stalls.
Conversely, when my son was learning, I got a 5 speed Dakota. He didn't drive our auto van for months. He is good on the clutch now and likes the control. I also learned on a standard and have never had any trouble shifting.
You will need to get a feel for the clutch. When you let it out, realize when the engine is under load from the weight of the car. My son was taught that this is the 'friction point'. The clutch isn't free wheeling but is starting to engage. You have to compensate for the load by pushing the throttle a bit more and letting it slip a bit. You don't have a lot of power, (unlike my 300e), so you may need to rev more to take off, especially on hills. Avoid stopping on really steep hills like Queen Anne Drive in Seattle. I was stopped there and thought my clutch would never survive. It did.
Good luck!
