I'm no expert on this subject.. but it may seem that people might want to abuse a manual and redline the car to hell causing the company damage... yet i've seen exotic car rental places have manual... agian i'm no expert
I suggest finding a friend to take you for a ride in a manual car one day, it only takes a few hours and you learn the basics of a stick

They are not cheap but the last time I check, you can even rent an S2000.

Dig up your local yellow pages and find the more ghetto rental places.

There is a place here in Alameda that has manual Miatas and some other hoopdies for a decent price.

I'll see if I can find some contact info. for you.

I've actually rented a couple Miatas from a local car dealer for about $50 per day. You might try that...
