How much do you want to spend? That's the main quesion. Answer this, and you'll get a much better answer.

Re: first car

For a first car, a Honda is fine. Just don't expect much from it at first.

Most Honda's don't break out of the 14s... infact, most don't reach the 14s. There are certainly fast hondas out there, that run very respectable times, but they got there with lots of money and time invested into them.

But for a first car, something that's reliable, economical and something that'll teach you a thing or two about cars. It'll do you good.

Personally, I'd go with a early Mazda Miata MX-5 for a first car. Damn cool cars.

Re: first car

personally id start with a slow ass fwd car first... so go get that honda, then id switch to a quicker rwd car... to get used to rwd. then mod the piss out of it or get a faster one. but if u want a quick one now for not a lot of money id go fox bady mustang also, and they respond very well to mods and have a massive aftermarket.

So does my ass... but that doesn't make it worth a shit to drive.





Kidding, Fox Bodies are good lil cars. Can run massively fast times with not a whole lot done to them.

Also, any TPI 350 F-body from the late 80s, or a 4th Gen LT1 Camaro would be a good choice in a cheap (by todays standards) car.

Don't forget the Nissan 200sx/240sx, 300zx(s), 280zx, 280z, 260z, 240z's, Toyota Celica (older gens), Supra, Corolla's, Mazda Rx-7s and Miatas for good cheap import rwd cars.

Re: first car

1st gen turbo DSM. relatively quick stock and respond very well to mods. If I could do it all over again I would have picked up a nice 1st gen gsx. Either that or more recently I've had my eyes looking around for a good condition Starion.

Re: first car

Hmm, maybe knowing the amount of $$$ you're willing to spend on a car would help out in this case?
