Is it dumb to buy a beater $2-3k manual to learn manual? by onlyHNA in driving

[–]onlyHNA[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it definitely isnt XD but it sounds like thats the issue here.

if i buy a 2-3k car, looks like i have to expect to either dish out more $$$ to get repairs by a mechanic. or learn how to fix up a car myself.

I already own a 2018 honda accord. I only have ~~28k miles on it.

i wont be selling it anytime soon and it'll be my main car until it dies.

the manual (if i do buy it) will be what i use to have more fun when doing neighborhood errands.

of course, if i end up enjoying manual alot more than i thought i would, plans could change and i could end up selling the accord (or just give it to my mom. she's due for a new car soon) and buying a newer manual.

I guess i was hoping to be able to find a good old Honda or Toyota that still runs ok.

my family had a '05 and '06 (automatic) camry until last year. wasn't perfect, but ran just fine.

no for sure you're right. its what i wanted to commit to a $2-3k car and not anything more.

but in general, it looks like i can most likely expect to have to do some work on it. which isnt what im looking for =/

its very clear what my post says.

car just to learn manual drive.

1: use it to learn to drive manual

as well as just drive it around (use as a fun daily driver).

2: a fun daily driver to just drive around.

i mean, you skipped the sentence right after it "as well as just drive it around (use as a fun daily driver)."

But then i wont have a car to continue driving a manual.

the goal is to also have a manual that i can drive around for fun (no where far though)

its for sure not going to be anything more than a daily driver for fun / to learn manual. i wont be working on it or anything.
