It's fucking silly looking but the Fiat 500 Abarths are super fun manual cars for starters since it sounds amazing stock, has a ton of aftermarket support, and weighs so little that the stock 165hp is more than enough to get you in trouble.

My first car is a 2006 Mitsubishi Colt CZ3 1.5L Gasoline Engine 109 HP, really fun and reliable car. Love it. But sadly it isn't sold in North America. But you can import a Mitsubishi Colt Ralliart from Japan which is basically a Baby Evo, great cars ! 😀🇯🇵👍

Getting a manual Acura TL via Marketplace was one of the best decisions I’ve made.

I drive an 8th gen si 260 whp k24a2 N/A complete bolt ons and I loved racing my buddies fiesta ST and focus STI

For any aussies, au falcon and ba xts are good options.

You just listed my first and only car and my real life JDM pick. Been living with the ST for almost 10 years and loving it the whole time.

Thanks man I am looking for my first project car and this helped me out a lot

Being a Mustang guy nothing will change my mind on any mustang model except the mach E

My old FiST was a riot. Best handling FWD car out of the box ever! Lift throttle oversteer was a HOOT!


Now I get my manual fix in my '48 Chevy Truck though. Not the same.

Most fun manual car I ever owned was a 1990 eclipse gsx that we turned up. That car did everything, I've never had that much fun since. I've owned lots of stuff too.

Fiesta st for the win.. cheap to modify and hell of a lotta fun to drive

[Jeebuus]

I've got a 100 and love that not many people outside of car guys or others who know what it is ask questions when I'm driving it.

In Europe the Fiat Panda 100HP is a great pick in my opinion. It may not sound like much, but the engine steering and suspension are just right. It makes the driving experience so much fun!

The is200/300 is one of the most underrated cars and im so happy about it lol, its like a mini chaser but cheap

[exodead]

got myself a 2008 328i with the 6speed for my first car. absolutely love it

[daefilm]

Focus and fiesta STs are really underrated

[faikozkan]

Scion TC is a great daily manual too. Sure it’s not that fast and it’s fwd but it makes every road you get as fun as it can be

[paulalcantara]

Big turbo fiesta here. After 20k miles and 3 years I still love it!

[landenmoudy]

Bmw Z4 2003 coupe soft top was my first manual and god i love it so much. It was such a fun car to drive wether you get the 5 speed or 6 speed.

I bought a 2003 986 boxster for my first stick just a few days ago and it’s a blast. Owning a Porsche at 17 feels kinda wild but hey it’s a fun car.
