Searching for vehicles with Manual transmission only

Look again. The filter is there.

The only sticks that don't eat clutches are wimpy-motored hatches. Civiucs used to be good contenders as their weak motors didn't strip clutches unless hole-shots or riding on hills was part of the routine. I sold a 2013 Imp 2.0 5sp hatch a few years ago that I thought had a great match of torque to clutch durability. If this is to be her first car get one with a partially worn clutch figured into the price as she'll eat it up soon anyway...guaranteed. Seen it hundreds of times.... Under no circumstances get her a big four or six and expect to get decent clutch life; won't happen unless she's inbcredibly serene and patient with clutch rolloff. My tests used to involve teaching clients to NEVER rev above 1500rpm when engaging. That requires time, composure, and finesse. If the app includes driving on hills, in the city, or multiple drivers, do NOT get her a stick. She'll either burn the clutch or get hit while trying to push a quick left facing oncoming off a light. Scary stuff....

Using a clutch is an art. I can make a clutch almost last forever and I do not baby them but I don't slip them either. My Forester clutch was replaced at 95k but only because the throw out bearing was going and I suspect it was damaged due to the engine going in and out of the engine bay constantly.
