When in doubt, consult the owners manual.

From page 26:

"Always set the parking brake when parking your vehicle. Move the selector lever to "P" (Automatic transmission) of move the gearshift lever to "R" or "1" (Manual transmission). On hills also turn the wheels toward the curb."

That being said, I always park mine in neutral and start it with out using the clutch.

No particular reason, just have always done it that way.

Good luck,
