i have had an s2000 im in my second year of college, and my g/f actually just bought one TONIGHT!!! so yeah its cool, as long as your son keeps his head in focus.

 

From a practical standpoint, perhaps a good car for a college student would be the G 35 SEDAN. It comes in a six speed manual, with an engine that's close to 300 hp, if you wish. But the main thing here is that it has enough room to haul a college student's "stuff."

Thanks,
Richard

 

I'm thinking used. You can get a used G35 coupe now, as well as good cars like used 325s, Accord and Acura coupes, and awd Audi A4s.

 

guys, im 16 and im getting one in feb. incerances for full coverage on me is 2459 a year, which isn't that bad for full coverage! put i also make strait a's

 

Wouldn't a straight A student be able to spell "straight" and "insurance" properly?

I'd say he would be fine with an S, as long as he drives responsibly. Also people have said that you need 4 seats to be able to carry friends around. I'd say 1 seat is plenty for a girlfriend.

 

Amen to that

 

for me personally... when I started paying for EVERYTHING on my own and didnt have ANYBODY to fall back too, I started being much more responsible
my parents were smart... they bought me an 800 dollar 1984 chevy caprice in college... I told them I had to have a car... guess I really didnt need one that bad

 

How about extra fun girls?

 

<<<< No problems here with mine in college, I have been driving mine 2 years here and have yet to get a single door ding. (crosses fingers)

 

Hahaaaa..it isnt bad because you aren't paying for it.
