im 16 and im looking to buy my first car. i want something that has some race potential and alot of mods i can get. i dont want to spend too much money. what do you think i should buy?

You should by a GEO Metro and refrain from trying to be 'racer', young-man! There are enough idiots out here... when you become a lil' more mature and can handle a 'race' car buy anything but a CIVIC or MUSTANG.

FAQ you and FAQ the horse you rode in on. you FAQtard



come on it was priceless!

yea, get something decent, whatever your taste is, get somthing thats also fairly cheap and easy to mod, and practice at the drag strip and i wouldnt street race until you kno and can handle your car

Well it's gonna be your first car, so basically you are likely to bang it up. Buy a 91 Camaro RS w/ a 305 block. They are sooo dirt cheap it isn't even funny, and they are really inexpensive to mod. Make sure to buy it with a stick shift. The stick shift versions were high 14 sec. cars. You could also opt for a mustang 5.0. I think the camaro is a safer car though, cause it's alot heavier, although not quite as quick (Mind you i am talking about a car that you will more then likely sell in about 2 years). Buy the Mustang if you plan on owning it more then 2 years, as it has alot more hop up parts. An LT1 camaro will kill you too fast, cause those suckers get squirrly easily.

a first generation RX-7. It's not fast by any means, but it's got great handling, is pretty zippy, reliable, and its got a rotary.
