Same predicament as brynne. I'm also a female newbie driver who can't decide between A/T or M/T. I know how to drive M/T thanks to my driving school but I'm not very good at it. I recently bought my first car, a 2nd hand '92 Toyota Corolla XE (small body) and although it's a good buy, mabigat syang i-drive for a newbie like me. I'm now planning to buy a brand new A/T car. Problem with A/T is, I'm worried about the FC and whether it can go through flooded streets. Low budget pa naman ko, I can only (barely) afford a Celerio or a Picanto..
