So my brother and I have been debating what kind off car he should get for his first car. He was looking for something in the 5-7000 range. I've told him to look at celicas, integras, and 240 SXs. Do you guys have any other suggestions? A couple of his friends suggested a stealth or a neon, do any of you have any experience with them? Thanks in advance for your help.

umm gas jetas bite as far as reliability goes but the diesel ones are work horses. Father has owned 5 diesel jettas now or is it 6? Regardless diesel vws aren't known for being speedy (sis has our old 01 jetta now) cept for the passat he had in europe (6 speed).
Umm lets see if it is fwd, cheap, and reliable id say celi, miata (space is a problem with them though), civic (yeah yeah), but dunno about others. Talon and eclipse are unreliable, neons are unrealiable deathtraps, probes (i think are fwd) are ugly, stealths aren't reliable from what ive seen and not sure on them being fwd. |
