hi I was wondering how good is this car and can it give me a lot of problems with 100k to 150k miles and is 1500$ a good price for it.
It's probably at or near the end of its expected service life, however if it was meticulously maintained it could have life left in it. $1500 doesn't buy much in a used car, so have it checked out and if OK you could get a couple of years out of it. I would not put any big money into repairs though.
it would only be for me to learn stick. It wouldn’t be a daily driver. And what do you think I should ask the owner ab the car before buying it?

The owner might tell you anything - he's trying to sell it! Would be nice to know how old the timing belts are. I think they're called for replacement at 60K miles on Hyundais of that vintage, and I'm pretty sure those are interference engines. If that belt drives the water pump you'll want to know how old that is as well. Best to have a mechanic or at least someone familiar with cars take a look at it, check for error codes with a scan tool.
It's an inexpensive car not going to be for daily use but there's still no sense spending $1500 on an old high-mileage Hyundai if it winds up needed thousands of dollars in repairs right off the bat. Probably a good throwaway vehicle for learning stick shift if no major problems with it. (I learned to drive stick on a Corvair, but that was a lifetime ago in what seems like a different world.)
Thanks
this was good help
