Let me rephrase my question a little.

For a 21 year old kid (if it would be your kid) what would you let him drive and hopefully sleep better at night when he is out and about?

a. 2000 Volvo S40 1.9 turbo - 160hp/170 lbs torque (turbo is a turbo)
b. 1997 Lincoln Town Car 4.6 - touring - 190hp/265 lbs torque (has it when U need it)
c. 1995 Camry LE 2.2 1/2 beater - 125 hp/145 lbs torque (surprisingly still has some pickup)
d. 1998 Saturn wagon! - 124 hp/125 lbs torque (has it ONLY when you really hit it)
I would opt for a 1999 or newer town car the body style is much more attractive. You can't go wrong with town cars their drive train is one of the most common in the country with all the police vehicles and cabs that share common parts with them. They have a smooth ride and are very safe. Not to mention they are very affordable.
