It's a big deal to every teen, lol.

Seeing how I'm a twin, I obviously went with my brother....seems that he's a better parker and I'm a better driver (words of the instructor, haha).

just make sure to stick away from the american makes
German ad Asian are probably the best for a first car, something like a VW Polo or Hyundai, even Daewoo.

might not look like much, but atleast they'll get you from a-b without breaking down or costing you a fortune in gas

Never been on a date,,you deprived child. I was on dates in second grade! I was a PIMP!! Course the real dates started in year 7

Im in the North East so its real snowy up here, so I really need 4 Wheel Drive, which is why the Forester is such a good choice. Not as expensive as an SUV, better gas mile-age, lots of room (seat folds down) and a very safe car

Chicks dig a guy with a car

My first car, a Dodge Daytona. One of the small 90hp ones, not the 240hp ones. Then a buick, and now pontiac. Can ya tell I'm not big on foreign cars?

Want a Mitsubishi? Gotta get a 3000gt, but its gotta be the VR4 one. Steering might take a little getting used to.

Just going by what Gran Turismo 3 taught me. Did very poorly with a 3000gt, and great with my good ol Lancer Evolution.

Fact: 20 years ago a car might have been cool, but now days everyone has one. Hell, at my friends house they got more cars than people. Only expencive cars get girls and even then it's still rare.

isn't an evo a bit heavy on the budget especially as the first car
imagine this

driving along in a lancer...
sudden urge to thrash it...
you thrash it...
you accidently hit a tree/car etc...

there goes a really expensive peice of artillery.

just stick with a cheap feul efficient (safe) car...then crank it in a few years time.

I don't think it's the price of the evo that would make the insurance costly. Try to insure it after you pass your test and you would proberly just get laughed at.

I know people who almost pay more insurance a year than the car is worth.
