That thing is such a meme machine, in reality it's the very epitome of a fucking horrible shitbox, fits the stereotype perfectly. It just keeps running worse and worse. It's one of those cars that just keep breaking and falling apart yet never really crosses over the line and completely blow up, it just keeps consuming one pint more oil for every litre of gasoline, the interior is either completely gone or has one foot in the grave already, the engine keeps making whatever the fuck noises and is riddled with ziptie fixes and jurry rigged to hell and back, yet never stops working completely. The body is either rusted completely away or currently in the process and showing some very promising results.
It's just an all around terrible car and being a cheap RWD hoonmobile is its only saving grace.

It's not that you've never driven a car with an automatic. It's that you are 'bored' because you don't move your left leg.

8th gen LX sedan. My transmission has been fine for 120k but shocks are gone. Spooky to drive right now. I'm sentimental about it but the interior has gone to shit very fast and exterior needs a full paint job. Not sure it's a good car to keep forever. Maybe better suspension will change my mind.

If you practice, it really isn't, but yeah, better off to right foot brake. Start with resting your left foot on the pedal as you brake with your right to train your left foot to have some control.

It already has over 214k miles on it.....
That being said it has had 0 major problems and never been in a collision. It's the Manual I4 model.
I could probably get it to 300k without anything incredibly expensive needing replacement but I would have to make sure I always get it regularly checked and keep up on maintenance.
Beyond that some other issues could develop.
Hard to say.
