Learning manual is easy. I only had $500 for my first car, and only one I liked in that price range was a manual (95 Grand Am GT, 1 of 2 manual ones I've ever seen) I'd never driven a manual before and just knowing the basics of it I drove it the 20 miles home, and by the second or third week owning it was so much a second nature that I had trouble going back to an automatic when it broke down.

So in short, you'll do fine.

but is a mustang good to learn on i only ask because somepeople say they come with racing clutches which is more stiff

jaded seconds

you'll be fine. and learning manual is way easier than alot of people make it out to be.

hows the insurance i know it varies but just trying to get an idea on how much you guys pay

I don't own a Mustang yet actually, but from my friends that I've driven yes the clutch is a little stiffer than most cars. It's nothing compared to European cars I've driven. For insurance, it's really a case by case basis. I've had my license for 4 years, no accidents, and all tickets thrown out, and a 2003 Mustang GT would cost me $1800 a year to insure. But again it varies, based on such things as your driving record, the town/city you live in, the value and risk of the car and the cost to repair.
