Have to agree with Jacket3ree and the Karmann Ghia. My best friend and I worked on his two KGs for three years in high school. Only time I ever felt mechanically inclined. Great, great cars, fun and relatively easy to fix, and my buddy invested in a great sound system.
A year later, I bought a convertible Fiat 850 Spider. Man it looked cool, and man, was it ever a PoS. I had to learn how to fix it myself because I couldn't afford the labor, only the parts. Never did figure out how to keep it from burning oil. And the only way it could exceed 65 mph was in a free fall. Still and all, when it was running...driving to the beach was molto bene...
