A driver brake force simulator is provided for a braking system of a vehicle, including at least one spring, and a displaceable piston which delimits a pressure chamber formed in the driver brake force simulator and which is movable from its starting position, against an elastic force of the at least one spring, by a predefined maximum displacement travel in a first direction in such a way that a volume of the pressure chamber which is fillable with brake fluid is increasable. The driver brake force simulator includes at least multiple disk springs as the at least one spring. Moreover, a manufacturing method is provided for a driver brake force simulator for a braking system of a vehicle by supporting a displaceable piston of the driver brake force simulator with the aid of at least one spring. The displaceable piston is supported by at least multiple disk springs as the at least one spring.
