What resources can I use to learn more about cars? Stuff like which ones are/were good/bad and what made them that way, as well as actual mechanics of cars.
Literally anywhere but here.

Lmfao, this x1000.
Just google the shit you want, watch Scotty Kilmer, and go to specific forums for specific cars if you have questions and use the search function. That's how I solve 99% of my shit.

This
On a related note, where to do I learn to be a better driver? Like so I can drive back roads more aggressively

Is a 6th generation civic hatch a good first car? I want something fun and exciting that handles well .
How expensive are real modifications for it
There's no other option for me and I'm just down over this board

Practice on back roads progressively more aggressively

It's a very good first car, mods are relatively cheap but you'd have to dump a lot of money into it to make it fast. But it would be plenty fun.

Is there anything I can read or watch that can help in any way? Would something like autocross be a good idea?

There are only 2 things that you need in order to know everything about cars. And that's Initial D and Best Motoring International/Hot Version, after watching that you will be a drifting God.

Like this chap right here said, Best Motoring and Tsuchiya will teach you everything you need to know

The sad thing is I can't even tell if you're trolling. That's how bad this board is.
>>15346743
Obviously you shouldn't take ''everything you need to know'' literally, but Best Motoring videos are a source of good entertainment and some information.
>>15346743
If you have seen them, then you know that I wasn't trolling

turn back now. the path to gittin gud at cars is littered with thousands of dollars wasted on shit you don't need and don't really know what you're doing with, and the only reward is to spend your weekends fixing your friends' and familys cars based on the vague details they give you

Eric The Car Guy youtube channel for learning how to wrench (NOt fucking scotty kilmer, fuck that asshole)

In general you cant go wrong with japanese and german cars, although recently the two have been fucking up.
Dont buy american and for your own sake, dont buy french, italian or british
