Answer 1

Hey- Im 17 and was in the same position you are a couple years ago. Here are a few suggestions that are popular with alot of girls:

1. Honda Civic - great gas mileage, classy, sporty, and very reliable.

2. Toyota Corolla- great(er) gas mileage, extremely reliable, cheaper, too.

3. Nissan Sentra/Maxima/Altima- very classy, cheap, good gas mileage. You should be able to find one of these, an older version, for under 3,000.

All foreign cars are super reliable and good on gas.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

for $4,000

look for

98 Acura CL, 98 Ford Mustang V6, 98 Honda Accord or Civic, 98 Nissan Frontier or Pathfinder, 98 Subaru Impreza or Legacy, 98 -00 Toyota Corolla or Echo 00

these are all reliable and will last longer than other cars in this price range.

Answer 3

I guess you should also check insurance quotes for the car before buying one, for example here: http://autoinsurance.undonet.com

First time drivers usually have much higher rates than others. And it depends from car.
