Perfect car for a 16yr Girl

[RallyGT]

the h22 came stock? i dont know my hondas that well, but im pretty sure the h22 doesnt come stock in an early 90's prelude.

but i agree with getting her a pos car to learn in and make her own style. cuz everyone beats the hell outta their first car.

[su_maverick]

I think the H22s were only in the V-Tech trim, but I could be wrong.

[VertigoEpidemic]

Hmmm I found a 92 240sx for $1300, needs a new clutch, so thas another 200, and I can do the work myself... or better yet, make her do the work just show her how. Then again I'm sure she'd rather have a running car... but what better way to love you car then to work on it! "blood, sweat, and tears."

[Drk_drftr]

get an s13 they kick *Censored**Censored**Censored* and if you crash em' you won't mind much cuz they only cost $500-3500

[S13/R32]

dude i can't really get where ur coming from but to give a first car to learner is like something u gotta think about, even if they wanna learn to drift u can still learn the basics in a FWD and giving a turbo car as a first car is not a good idea as u should kno cos of ur 300ZX some around 3000 rpm the car changes turbo kicks in. Remeber no car is a slow car with L and P platers if it goes ova 100 kph it dangersous (which just about anycar can do). 98 camry with the 5sfe engine my mate were able to to some damage with those being dumb as u usally do (u wanna push it to its limits ect). and i can relate to that i built a big block 429 cobra jet V8 with my family and droped into a XY and shat myself. S13 turbo bad idea and theres more than just getting a good car like the size of the person and can she see out of the car with ease (Blind spots, is the boot, doors to high?)...ect heres wat i'd say-

-92 toyota camry these are powerful enough (96 camrys onward have high boots)
-mitsu lancer 4 door sedans good all rounders
-volvos safe

but if u really want to get her a import-

-S13 non turbo but these like get side ways and have some traps for new drivers

or

-R32 GTs four door or coupe with RB20DE engine (non-turbo)

and take her paddok bashing it builds up conifdence and good partise for drifting and doing burnouts and a defenise driver course is a good idea too

[ACDSupra7]

That Supra thing sounded kinda good =P

And it's not too heavy, it's just heavy.

[su_maverick]

ummmm, s13/R32, I think your suggestions need to be limited by whats available in the US.

[zdss14]

hold up she is haveing this car given to her!?, let her buy it her self she wont go to crazy with something she has money tied up in.

o maby im mad because i have to buy my own car too

[Mr.Sandors]

Oldie but goodies are always good. And I think I seen someone say an S2000? For a 16 year old girl? Who may get intrested in drift? I suppose she'd be safe when she crashs.

[ACDSupra7]

Just get her a Corolla, that's a pretty neutral balanced car.

[spock]

How about a Mustang or F-body? Every 16-year-old girl in America drives one of those, so it's obviously the right choice.

[su_maverick]

Im pretty sure we were talking about something reliable .

[DoriFuta-]

Get her a Datsun 510 Or a Delorean.

[su_maverick]

Delorean!!! She can smuggle coke in it just like John D. did!

[DoriFuta-]

Those are some Kik-4$$ cars.
I would love to have a rust proof car, consittering my car is full of it.

510s are sweet little drifrs.

[su_maverick]

well, look at it this way, your car has character

[DoriFuta-]

If it continues i won't have a car.

[su_maverick]

Replace the body panels with wood . Those cars are great.

[Tighty_wh1tey]

I love how most ppl would get flamed for asking the question of what should i buy, but as soon as it says 16 year old girl everyone comes runnin.
lol


why dont you just take her out car shopping and give her advice on what to buy ultimately it would be her choice but you could always be there to make sure she buys somthing worthy.

[su_maverick]

Well there is a difference between what you should buy yourself (which should be your choice) and what someone should buy a brand new driver. I say ask her what she likes, like a list of 10 cars at a certain price, and then you pick which one you want her to have.

Is it her money shes spending? If it isn't I think its ultimately her parents choice.

[su_maverick]

agreed

1) I could careless if it was a man or a woman, we are here to help.

2) 16 is jail bait and anyone looking for a date should goto a dating site.

3) It would really be up to the parents\the girl what kind of car she wants.

4) How do we all know he just didn't put 'Perfect Car For A 16yr Girl' just to draw more attention to this thread so he wouldn't get flamed?

It is for her.

I say ask her what she likes, like a list of 10 cars at a certain price, and then you pick which one you want her to have.

I did just that and she chose a Miata, but then changed her maind to a 240sx because it was bigger.
