What are the best starter-cars according to you?

I'd say cheap, easy to maintain, non-gasguzzling cars.

The holy trinity of Honda, Toyota, Subaru.

Civics, Accords. Corrollas, Camrys. Older subaru's.

This.
As a mechanic, I can tell you the best thing you can do for yourself is to start with a jap econobox.

It teaches you what you can and cannot do with a vehicle, your inevitable mistakes will be relatively inexpensive. You will learn your basic maintenance on a relatively easy to work on vehicle until you feel confident to do larger repairs... again, relatively inexpensive if you cock it up. Plus : There are so many of them out there that you'll easily find how to videos to guide you through your learning curve.

Once you've learned to respect the vehicle, and learned enough to be competent with your repairs, THEN you can move up to sportier, more luxurious vehicles.

The biggest and most common mistake I see is people buying high end vehicles they can only just barely afford, and then realize they have a myriad of issues cropping up caused by user ignorance or neglect... the vehicle quickly becomes too expensive to maintain and it winds up scrap. Then the owner finds himself barely able to afford the econobox he should have bought to begin with.

If you don't have the experience, DO NOT buy a luxury vehicle. It WILL wreck you.
