Nothin yet i'm pnly 15. I live in Australia so I don't really know what car prices are over there. Lets say that i wouldn't get a BMW or anything like that. But prices are pretty much anything but not insanely priced

When i get started
you need to learn to drive first then get good at that learn how to get the most out of a car before you even start racing. BTW a supra TT if thats what your talking about will get you killed there monsters not for a newbie driver i'll say either the SIR like blue said or 200sx like NSX said or you can get an 2.5 RS impressa i think the WRX is a bit much for a starting driver also.

Only advice I can think of comes from the greatest movie of all time.

don't get some huge powered RWD car before u know how to drive. u'll seriously mess it up or someone else up. (not trying to sound like a prick, but trust me, u will).

learn to drive, maybe swap a b18c1 or b18b in a hatch an work from there. after u get some experience, an learn to truly drive cars, then move on to the super cars.

Sage advice...spend bucks on a driving school thats not designed to meet your insurance and license requirements. One that teaches control at high speeds, drifiting, proper accel. techniques, etc.

Then get a car with a manual transmission.

buy something thats gonna meet your driving desires and one you can afford to mod out. No sense getting a car that you can't afford or can't find parts for.

Decide if you want to drift, road race, rally, blah blah...or just plain kill hondas on the road.

Just do some net surfing and test drives and figure out what feels right for you.
