Easy to maintain manual cars for beginners

>what would be an easy manual transmission car to maintain?
The car where you don't abuse the clutch and shift like you are an extra in a Fast and Furious movie.

Civic

>pic is a car that needs engineers and technicians to turn it on
4chan is 18+, leave

The picture really matters.

A Miata is a good choice for a car that's easy to maintain

Tranny can be changed with out a jack it is so lightweight to make those clutch changes easy
Shitload of apace in the engine bay make underhood work easy

>>14718432
Civic, miata, small truck (Ranger, s10, Tacoma, Frontier)

>>14719231
A Miata is a good car if he wants to feel like a fuccboi

Any pre 2000 cheap shitbox
That includes Miata, Civic, Corsa, Shadow, whatever the fuck

Just buy a civic or an integra

You'll also be crushed if an angry Cletus in his wife's SRX nudges your rear end.

Everyone ITT is suggesting 90s cars, they're all pretty unsafe.

>>14719307
Safer than 80's cars, cheaper than 60's cars

old mitsubishi lancers. i'm pretty sure the sedans don't go over one ton and you can get parts anywhere

Miata are gay as fuck

>>14718432
I was you. I went the mk1 and mk2 VW diesel route - cheap parts - fairly available, hard to kill, great internet support. Now its 10 years later and I can do anything on them - just did a rering on an 86 jetta, daily driver is an 86 golf I bought for $600 a year and a half ago and put about $200 into - 40+ mpg.
wouldn't call it "easy" though. If you start down this path (with any kind of car) and don't enjoy the work, stop

I wonder if you are just pretending to be retarded or are you really this fucking insecure.

>>14718437
Kek, you haven't driven a difficult manual then.

A custom racing transam I couldn't even drive, and a stock lotus i maneuvered like a kids toy. Never assume that you'll be able to get behind the wheel of any car and be able to drive it.

What's /o opinion about poniac fieros?

>>14718432

Any Koenigsegg

>>14719252
2.5/10
Made me comment

Porsche 944

>>14718432
I'm surprised no one in the thread has mentioned it yet but Honda Civic, the clutch is easy and forgiving, the shifter is usually really good, easy as fuck to maintain, and depending on which Civic parts are plentiful and cheap

>>14723425
body kits

Lancaster

>>14718432
Honestly? It's pretty damn easy to learn manual on a Corvette, but I wouldn't recommend it as a first car

>>14718442
Is this bait?
Or are you really autistic enough to think that OP was asking about the Vulcan being easy to maintain, and not just using it as a cool photo for his post

>>14719307
>le 90s so old
>omg like they're so unsafe were seat belts even invented
>they don't have coal stations anymore I can't even

What brand is considered a reliable and cheap for a tool set? What are the essentials or must have in a tool set?

>>14719231
second. that engine bay is pretty cramped though because the car is so damn small, big pain just to replace the oil filter, gotta go through the passenger wheel well.

not saying they are hard to work on though.

>>14724597
Just buy a bunch if shit then keep buying more. Seriously no matter how much shit you'll always end up not having a tool and be running out for it.

Start with a basic socket set, wrench set, breaker bar, mini sledgehammer, screwdrivers, jack + stands and torque wrench then buy other shit as needed. If you really want to get into it you could also get a air compressor, impact and impact sockets. NEVER EVER use regular sockets on an impact

6th gen civics probably have one of the largest if not the largest aftermarkets in the world. You ca get CAI and and all the other bolt on shit for dirt cheap and you can install it yourself easily.

When shit breaks its also cheap to repair which is another huge plus
