There is, but you'd probably have to go to Europe or Asia or Africa to find them. In the US, none of the major rental agencies will have any (nor do they rent out diesel vehicles, either), simply because there's too much liability. Manual transmissions are not the norm here, and thus, a very small percentage of people learn how to drive them, and an even smaller percentage learn how to drive them properly, at that. Since the agency has no way of actually knowing whether the person renting the car actually does know how to drive one, it's much less of a gamble to just have an automatic transmission. Otherwise, they'd end up with a whole lot spent in repair bills from people who wear down the friction disc face, people who destroy the synchronizer gears thinking they don't have to use the clutch when they shift, etc.

How can you start your car if the starter is bad?
Manual cars can be started with a bad starter due to the ability to roll start the car. Automatic transmission cars are not so lucky. To roll start a manual car all you need to do is put the car in gear with the key in the "on" position, push in the clutch, get the car to roll, then quickly release the clutch. The transmission will slam into the engine and force it to turn. Don't forget to push the clutch back in once it starts or the car will stall.
