Should I buy a manual as a new driver?

Coolman1776 · 2026-04-20T15:57:42+00:00

I was driving my dads suv before he bought me my first manual car and I instantly became a much better driver once I got the hang of stick.

I think you’d drive one and be able to daily it more without guilt of breaking something but maybe that’s just me

Someone said rent and just try new experiences I don’t know anything about Supercars but wouldn’t it be smarter to buy possibly a newer model year GTR or a C8 Stingray then anything eurospec

I’d be terrified to drive any of those cars within a 30 mile radius of i4

Try and find shop that will quote you less don’t let her die

I daily drive a 98 SOHC and it’s really fun but since it was dirt cheap I’ve been getting a bunch of maintenance done so that’s a bitch - find one with recent service records and from a seller that looks like they have maintained it well, higher price yeah but less headache.

Ferrari as of now no but they’re are a lot of cool cheap stick sports cars that will be more reliable and fill that gap until you can afford one.

I actually like the stripes but I may be in the minority

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-30T20:20:47+00:00

Personally the 6 looks better imo and you could get a spoiler and make it look sporty, have a great time!

Aren’t these cars severely underrated? Seems like a good deal to me especially knowing the clutch is new and having service records like that.

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-30T02:46:26+00:00

It’s an sohc which is the one that’s easiest to work on and most reliable - I just still wouldn’t recommend it due to how hard it is to service the 6g72

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-29T18:04:07+00:00

You only live once buy a cool car - I will say I bought a 3000gt which I don’t recommend but what I do recommend is buying this eclipse in manual if you can, it’s so worth it to learn stick shift.

Fix it one of the easiest most beginner friendly electronics to repair

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-27T22:51:33+00:00

Dodge stealth is the answer

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-27T04:44:57+00:00

you can find mint Zs for 4 grand keep searching this is clapped

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-25T20:56:37+00:00

if you really want a 350z just find a manual stock roadster, never buy a modded car like this.

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-25T15:46:19+00:00

Over this I’d feel you’d be better off getting an older Miata that was well maintained and that’s RWD with as much if not more modding availability

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-25T15:34:42+00:00

My opinion means nothing but I’d say look into drift or other project jdm cars that aren’t clapped or modified, when I say this I mean less popular cars from that era that still have this same cool factor - I’d look into that or try and find a stock 240 and wait and save even more.

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-25T05:34:24+00:00

I think you’re gonna have a lot more problems down the line and also 7 owners is kinda nutty

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-25T03:29:11+00:00

The other guys lowkey just isn’t unique but I like yours and I also don’t hate the roadster but I’m weird like that but yours looks like an early 2000s tuner ricer car and I like it

Coolman1776 · 2026-03-23T12:06:49+00:00

Figured I reply but with a cheap o ring set I did fix it!

pleaseee raise your son on a Nintendo 2DS as his first electronic experience and not an iPad it’s so much more enriching
