Good first car, going to be driving soon?!?

Question

I want to spend $10,000 or less for my first car, since I will be paying for it. I would love something bigger, like a jeep or an suv, but I don't think I'm going to find many of those for under $10,000. What are some good cars that are cheap to insure and are good first cars?

I put this in this section because I want opinions of other teens.

Answer 1

My sister, who just turned sixteen has a Honda Accord. Honda's are good cars (good reviews) and they rarely brake down much. I would definetly reccomend stay away from FORD's (Fixed or Repaired Daily= FORD). Honda's keep you safe, although they aren't a jeep or SUV. You can find cheaper Honda's on craigslist.com, some fairly new, some older!

Answer 2

I have a 2004 Toyota Corolla but it was near $16,000 and I absolutely love it. But Hundai's are also good cars for the cheap; I would recommend visiting lots of car lots and bringing your parents with you to make sure that you don't get ripped off. You want a good interest rate and a reasonable payment. Good luck! =]
