First Car Advice Please
Hello. This is another 16 year old asking for advice (not harsh criticism) about getting a first car.
Here are the facts: Im getting the car for my 17 birthday present Yes, I have some driving experience My parents are paying of the car and insurance I have a 3.4 GPA and I am hard worker No I am not a spoiled kid looking for a 400HP death machine My Dad did not give me a spending limit, BUT I'm no spoiled brat. I would like to keep it under 12-15K I am taking a year off after high school this year, so I will have time to invest in my car I prefer used, but if a new car gets the job done, then hey! I am open to suggestions I thought getting my first car would be a fun experience, but to be honest this process gets more stressful day by day. I need to give my dad and idea of what I want pretty soon. This is a list of cars I have compiled so far: 01 Teg GSR 94 or 97 240SX (i dont know which one is better) 99 Maxima 95 Impala SS (This is a short list because I keep cutting it lol.) Other cars I like, but are probably unreasonable are: the new Charger SXT 03 G35 Coupe the new F150 Quad FX4 02 330 Ci and I know there are lot of 4 banger critics on AF but the new Civic Si is an attractive car  I have one more factor to mention. I have a girlfriend and I want to get a car that she will feel special riding in. Thankyou for your time  . I know I'm young so I apologize now ahead of time for anything ignorant I may have said. I know how it is dealing with younger car fans lol. I get questions all day from 13 year olds who saw fast and the furious like: "does nos make your car blow up". I guess we all have a fascination with these machines. -Have a good day, Dre

Re: First Car Advice Please
Maxima, Impala, or G35.
Its tough finding a clean B-body SS these days and not feeling like you got ripped off though.

I would also like to add that I am 6-4, and I live in Phoenix (if any of those factors make a difference). Also: how does the E36 M3 sound?
I guess I have narrowed it down to 1995 Impala SS E36 M3 1997 Teg GSR 1994 240SX 1999 Maxima
