https://github.com/JPLogistics/JPLogistics_C152(excellent 150 with steam gauges, opening doors, and windows you can open in flight)

The C310R is lush
To be more serious about your autopilot/garmin question, this uses the ASobo AP and Garmins, though you can improve those with free/paid mods and the plane supports those too. eg the GTN750 from PMS or this GN530

G530/G430
I suggest getting this mod. It adds a lot of RL functionality.

Maybe I’m a weirdo… but I love the preflight almost as much as the flight. Charts, weather, & Vatsim radio. I love it all :)
Only for the addon 430/530, but the instructions are on the GitHub. https://github.com/pimarc/pms50-gns530

Does anyone have exp. with the GTN 750 Add on? Worth it? I have the M205 Ovation from Carenado
PMS50 also has a GNS 530 mod that adds more features too. https://github.com/pimarc/pms50-gns530
- MSFS has come so far, just love it

I have a question: how do I turn on the second screen on the default Cessna 172? I made the default checklist until "after taxi" and realized in-flight that NAV2 couldn't work due to the screen being off.
Also if you don’t have it, grab PMS50’s mod for the 530/430. It brings it much closer to real life function/less frustrating. https://github.com/pimarc/pms50-gns530

Best flight sim for instrument training?
As others have said, X-Plane is probably the best bet for instrument training, although it depends on what instrument systems you are trying to learn. Steam gauge VOR/ILS works great in MSFS in the steam gauge planes so you won't have any problems there. If you will be using a GNS530 or similar, there is a great free mod for MSFS that adds a good implementation for those systems: https://github.com/pimarc/pms50-gns530 The G1000 today is still severely lacking even with the Working Title mod, so I can't recommend it for trianing.
