your suggestions would be appreciated

im about to turn 16 and shopping for my first car and dont really have any idea what to get so if you could help that would be great...
keep in mind that i live in a mountainous area and the winters make it hard to get around and i have a budget of around 13,000 dollars and i want a car or small suv either of which i would like to be stylish and nice looking

Hay hypnotic515 you need something in an all wheel drive like the dodge stealth or 3000GT.
Great style and power for not that much.

Great suggest an old car with power to a 15 year old. 13000, seems like a lot for a 15 year old to spend on a first car. I say got for a Civic, focus, or something along those lines.

well my dad is giving me about 5000 and my mom is giving me 3000 and i have saved up about 5000 for the purpose of getting a nice car that will last me a long time so i dont have to worry about fixing it and what not in my college years when im already short on money

The point was that you don't need a car with that much power. You need something more practicle otherwise you're going to end up wrapped around a telephone pole or a tree.

true but i just meant that maybe for more money i could get something more reliable to drive around where i live and still have it for a while...i was thinking about a mazda 3 or something all wheel drive along those lines

Like I said all wheel drive Stealth or 3000GT, I didn’t mean the twin turbo, they also make a strait V6 with about 220HP faster than stock civic and safer. Theirs a Stealth R/T at a used car lot where I live for $2100 in a stick shift.


I agree that the twin turbo is why too much for a 16 year old but who are you to say what he can or can’t have isn’t that up to his parents.

The twin turbo ones are the only ones with AWD. The NAs are FWD...and still are only average in their reliability.

damn 13k on your first car ":iceslolan :iceslolan spoiled:evillol: :evillol: " oh well truly i cant offer advice in that price range all of my cars ive spent less then 2k one i bought non running the only advice i guess i would have is spend around 7-8k and put 5k into it that would make a pretty sweet ride.
