Am I better off starting with something more simple? Like a Miata or 944? Or can one reasonably go from zero car tooling experience to owning and understanding a flat 6?
Miata's are about as simple as they get and parts are really inexpensive. I've seen decent spec miata's go for less than $10k. Both cars will take time to learn - but in the end the Miata will be more forgiving if something big goes wrong.
