En un texto sobre Mini Coopers dice:
"It’s a nightmare being in the passenger seat. I’m not good at the **stick shift** in the passenger seat"
¿Alguna sugerencia? ¿Es la palanca de cambios? Pero, ¿qué tiene que ver con estar del lado del acompañante? Gracias!!!

Hola Gabriela,
Voy a quitar la respuesta anterior para que todo resulte más claro.
Creo que lo tengo:
Supongo que será porque puede resultar más brusco, pero te paso una referencia en privado, ok? :O)

Stick shift
Manual gear change
There are far more automatics in the US, and if you rent a car it is almost guaranteed to be an automatic. If you really do want a manual, then you'll need to specifically ask for a stick shift, but the chances of getting one are not great.

palanca de cambio
"Stick shift" or "Palanca de Cambio" is located between the driver and passenger's seat. As noted elsewhere in a small car, shifting may invade the passenger's space. "Stick shift" or Standard transmission is not as common as automatic transmission in the United States. Our family has a car with a 'stick shift'.
