LOL @ Justin...you and i think alike...
Just speaking from experience, along with the rest of the national statistics. Almost every time I turn on the news it seems like a teen driver gets killed street racing, or gets seriously hurt driving "regular".

Honestly, I am not hating on any teen drivers, but get yourself a beater, learn how to defensively drive, and earn your way up the ranks.

[QUOTE=Pointblank,Sep 7 2007, 07:01 PM] what? Yes, because everyone in their teens doesn't know how to drive right?

16? Ford Focus. Your going to wreck whatever car you end up with in the first year anyways. Statics don't lie.

kthxbye
^^yeah man..."STATICS don't lie?" and learn how to use a contraction. it's "you're," not "your."


KDL323:

you can get the S2000 and sell all those parts for a VERY NICE bit of extra cash and own a more exotic and rare vehicle, or you can get the RSX-S and avoid the drama. if you haven't had much road experience yet, the RSX might be a better option for you. but if you feel confident enough, you could go with the S2000 (which could be too much for a new driver to get used to with RWD, no traction control, and more power).

Since this is your first car and it's gonna be your DD I suggest not to get a S2K as you'll put miles on it and you'll have to service it more then others and have to change tires often. Not to mention how much money you'll spend on gas in a week. Get the RSX or something cheaper.

I'm only saying this from a financial standpoint. Think about your future and save instead of spend. You'll be grateful you did. And you'll more then likely want to upgrade later on and get into something new and better. And you'll be better equipped to do it and will have more money for mods.

"Instant Gratification isn't something you need".

Look at Japanese Automakers to American Automakers from the 1970's-Present.

Japanese had crap for cars compared to American in the 70's but they wait it out using cheap materials compared to their American counter parts. Thinking to the future they improved on things people will need(you yourself will need). They started to catch up to American automakers until they finally passed them up in terms of Vehicles sold, quality and being on top of industry.

What I'm saying is that wait, don't spend so much, save right now, drive a beater and then later on you'll be able to afford yourself a BRAND NEW S3000 with money leftover to TWINCHARGE that bitch
