I really only need the vehicle to move around town and go on mini road trips, don't plan trying to haul anything heavy or anything.
Also would it be worth buying a manual car? Was looking at an 07 Mazda 03 but it's a stick shift and I don't know how to drive one (also heard that Mazdas are bad cars but that's coming from someone who knows about as much as I do about cars so I'm not sure.
Anyways any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It's best to buy from a direct owner. I've been driving manual for 12 years now and I bought an automatic last month. Less tiring for me.
