If you're in a high traffic area but want a manual anyway, just make sure you get a kind of car with good clutches. I think Honda's are usually pretty good for that. But I'd personally suggest a Subaru. My parents had it before I got it. They bought it new. And I've been driving that on it's original clutch at 210,000 miles without a hitch. No problems whatsoever in high traffic areas.

Just a suggestion.
