This car is almost 20 years old. I will likely have high maintainance plus payments. Still, the payments are low and for now it runs quite well.

One more hint, you have a car with a large trunk, no fammily to prevent you removing the backseats and people always require moving stuff around for cheap
That's something I had not thought of.

I've been driving a stick for 42 years and have never encountered that problem. Mine comes with a position called 'Neutral'. It not only rests the leg, but it's also less wear on the clutch bearings to be closed rather than held open.

Been there, done that. At my age I'll keep money set aside for that sort of thing.

The back seat folds down. I don't have to remove it.
