The CRV. It’s good to get some experience with a “tall” vehicle.

I did mine with a Golf, so I am slightly biased aka haven’t driven a Honda yet, then again in my country we don’t get to choose our drivers ED vehicle.

Fit would probably be easiest.

Honda Fit. You can see EVERYTHING in the Fit and its a very small vehicle.

All we had were G6s, Vibes, a few c.2006 Optimas, and a few new Civics. I got a new Civic.

Which is cleanest and in the best of shape?

I’d probably pick the Fit though. Super easy to park and maneuver. I did my test in a 13 Civic.

I did mine with Mercury grand marquis! I'd say go with the Jetta.

Seconded. My fiancee had one when we first started dating, and it is by far the best car for rear visibility that isn’t a convertible with the top down. Not only that, but its light steering make it very easy to maneuver in low-speed and parking situations.

all of them? what you’re driving doesn’t matter at this stage. build skills.

Absolutely.

Plus, they’re super fun to throw around too! (not that you’ll need to do that during a driving test)

Why limit your choices to such pedestrian choices. An Opponaut should learn to drive in a Ferrari, or a Lamborghini, or if you really must... a Shelby GT500.

Agreed! I have been driving mine for 7 yrs now. Great visibility and fun to toss around.

Why have a GT500, you could use a GT1000 instead.

I did mine in a 1987 F350 6.9L CC/LB. The tester told me to floor it. He wanted to merge within the year, not in 10 years. I told him it was put to the floor. I some how passed.

I’d go with the Fit. I’ve never driven a Jetta but I’ve tried the others and the Fit is the easiest to handle and most fun to drive.

All of them. Driving different cars of difference sizes and visibility will help you build skills. I learned on a Honda Odyssey and have no qualms about driving, or parking, large vehicles, where people I know who learned on small cars and have driven nothing else don’t feel comfortable driving something larger than a civic.

Get through formal Driver’s Ed in the Fit, and get your supervised hours in a variety of cars.

Those are all itty-bitty and easy, do whichever tickles your fancy. For my behind-the-wheel classes, we had a Cavalier sedan. And I got most of my practice hours in with a 2 door Tahoe. Easy-peasy, rice-and-cheesy. (Only I guess your options are the rice ones, lol.)

Fit has the best view out, especially to the rear.
