He also bought and paid for this one along with the mods done to it. never no problems with the law other then one speeding ticket which he got in my car.

There are not many 16 year olds mature enough but some are. you as a parent should know your child well enough to no. my daughter will be driving a freaking Kia or Honda she is the one I have to worry about she is a wild driver.....

He knows when he wants to race take it to the track.

as far as the car your looking at I would be leary of buying it.

haha if she's a wild driver buy her a rather large vehicle like a truck- not a honda or something unsafe! just my opinion. Females seem to panic under pressure and a large truck will keep her safe.

I didnt read every post but dont buy it! 1) you will pay for cobra insurence( I am 18 and have a Mach 1 and I pay $320 /month because it is tecnically in the same category as the Termi). 2) There is no way it would be cost effective to buy this and then put a DOHC 32v engine in, You would be better off buying a legit Cobra. I also would recomend getting some experience first, I started on a 86 nissan 4x4 and worked my way up, 5 cars later I own a Mach 1 and probably because I made money off all the cars I sold. And also keep in mind that $320 / month is with the good grade discount and a perfect driving record. In fact, some insurence companies might not even insure you with a GT. I had to look around before I could insure my 96 GT!!! Keep looking!

Holy ****! $320/month for insurance?!?! Wow!!! lol

And I don't think putting someone behind a bigger vehicle relaxes them. Sometimes being relaxed or too relaxed can be a bad thing. You should hear all the girls on campus that talk about losing control in their SUVs or trucks when there is very little snow on the ground lol It's the person that makes the difference, not so much the vehicle.
