right car for me?
hi everyone, i'm soon to be 16 and ready to drive, my parents are willing to get me something under 25k if i took care of some of the payments and gas etc.
so would the g35 coupe be good choice for me?
also if not what cars would you suggest? I am a good student (lower insurance) and a responsible person(racing's not really my thing). However i would like to have a good car.
P. S i'm looking for a used but very reliable car (japanese?)

The g35 wouldnt be a bad choice, Im 19 and have had mine since feb of 03. I started with a lexus IS300 sold it for my G. No one said it was a bad choice but it is rather expensive for a first car. Do you realy want 90% of your money going to a car every month? Dont think about it in terms of a month or 3 months from now, look at it in a year or 2 from now. I am personally broke due to modding my car and paying for gas and insurance and the rest of my bills. I don't regret modding, I dont regret the fun ive had with my car, but I realize that I need to get some of my assets into a better investment. Good luck kid, regardless of what you choose.

its also a pretty fast car, and for 16 i would never let me kid have a car like the g when they are just learning how to drive, whether you think you are a good driver or..chances are you'r probably not that good. just get the si so you can save money on gas/insurance and wont kill yourself in it.

oh well on autotrader (i live in phoenix) i found a black g35 coupe for 22900 and under 42000 miles, now i think thats a pretty good deal. Also i won't be buying anything until 07 so depreciation should shave some off of the price.
about the other post, i wont be modding my car with much, a headunit is about as far as i'll go. also, insurance was about 1800 (6 month) which is a lot of money but pretty much the same as say a solara, si, or anyother car in roughly the same catagory.

honestly the g doesn't come off to me as a car that a teenager would have, its more like a car for early to mid 20's just starting out life and wanting to treat themselves for being able to finish school.
i think u should look into other cars, im not saying the g35 is a bad car im just saying at the age of 16 your going to wanna mod your car up like crazy to be unique. and that is easier and cheaper to do with a lets say civic, rsx or other cheaper sports coupes

In most cases however you are correct, and I do agree with you.
