Default will this work for me?

well im interested in this car. first question i have is if this is a good deal or not. i havent looked at it but i dont know much about these cars to decide what really worth paying. the second thing i am wondering is with it being a 5 speed and all, i havent driven stick in 2 years. in san diego traffic can get fairly bad, and i frequently drive through LA to visit family. how durable is the clutch in there? will i most likely **** it up or should i be ok? how long do they usually last? any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

doesnt seem like it is a bad deal on the car at all just be aware that those wheels did not come on the car originally so for what ever reason someone put those ugly a$$ things on. i would also becarefull when buying a car form a used car lot like that. as far as the clutch goes i think they take alot to burn them out especially that care being only a baby with 20K on it you should be fine learning how to drive stick on it.

thanks man! thanks for bringing that up about the lot, i could have sworn it was a ford dealership unless i mixed up the cars lol. i know how to drive stick, but its been a couple years so i most likely lost my touch, i just didnt want to buy it and have it be so sensitive that if it takes me a couple days to get used to it then i wont burn it up.
