Im looking for a car to learn standard on. I dont want to spend a whole lot. So something cheap under $500. Just as long as the car runs good and its a stick shift it'll be fine. A tach on the car would be a very big plus.

If you just want to learn, it might be more cost efficent to rent a car for a day or 2.

For some people it'll take more than two days to learn though.
It's different for everybody though. My friend ruined the crap out of the transmision of a manual car trying to learn to drive it.
But then others might learn it quickly.

AFAIK, im not old enough to just rent a car ( I'm under 18). Nobody I know seems to care if I can drive standard or not, so they won't bother teaching me (oh and some are just scared i'll ruin the clutch). I've asked everyone I know that can drive one. My parents think standards are a waste of money so they won't teach me how to drive one either.
So my only choice is to basically learn on my own.
