I honestly at that age I'd get none of those and get myself a beater for the reason that your age bracket will mostly have an accident in their first year of owning a license. And it'll save your mom the anguish of having to taking care of all the shit that you could possible put her through. And most of us who had their license 16,17,18 prolly got into some type of accident.

Save your money and get some nice beater like an old 240, civic, teg and then later on you can get yourself a NICER car. You'll be glad you did. Not to mention you'll have cash in your pocket to actually hang out or take a girl to dinner.

but hey you won't listen to me since most of us want instant gratification. Get the RSX since it'll be cheaper and you won't have a problem spinning out. FWD for safety and FTW

what? Yes, because everyone in their teens doesn't know how to drive right? right.

I can understand where you're coming from, but that doesn't exclude him from having a decent fun car to drive in. That being said, I do agree that the RSX would be much much better than an S2000 for him. The RSX is fwd, and is much more idiot proof. The S2000, well...unless he's one gifted kid (like myself ), is probably going to crash it since he won't know the limits of the car.

Again, statistics don't lie. My kids won't "see" their license until they are 21 and "slightly" more mature.
