    Buy one on ebay's auto site. They have a new service to deliver it right to your front door!

      If your wanting it to last you 6-7 years, then the suggestions of the honda civic and suburu are good ones, IMO. Ford Fiestas have some aftermarket options and seem to be fun to drive. At least that's what a buddy of mine says that bought is teenager one before he started college.
      An older ford mustang would be a good choice but I would have to have the GT to make if really feel like a sports car but then the insurance would get you prob.

        My first new car was a 1977 Pontiac Trans Am . It had a 400 cu.in. small block v-8 and a Rochester quadra jet 4 bbl. carburetor.
        I wish I still had it. !!!
        I loved drive in movies to go see Smokey and the Bandit. I was king then. Hahaha

            I'm really looking for Subys, Camaros, and if all else fails a stang. I don't want to be that typical teenage douchebag in a loud stang. :P

              Well, nothing like aiming high for the money you got to spend. I love my 05 BMW Z4, 6 speed manual, that means another pedal son, a clutch. So fun to drive, my brother in law took her out last week and couldn't stop laughing in glee. He so wants one. Mine last year was 17 g's with 29K miles, probly worth 14k now. It gets lots of chick attention.
              A prayer, is kinda the same as a "Like". If there are enough likes, God will take notice. So "Like" away please. My daughter needs your prayers. Thank You.

                Then follow Jock's suggestion. If Subaru's are that rare in your neck of the woods then it should hold it's value pretty well.
                The name's Tamora...TVR Tamora...with a capital "T".

                Lots of living to do yet unseen and a more stories yet untold!

                  Check out the Impreza RS. Non Turbo, plenty quick and corners like a Porche with a suspension upgrade and Michelin Pilots. Heard they race them in Australia!

                  With a performance intake and exhaust you"ll get 30 plus mpg.

                  Bought one from CarMax, 2 years old with 8k miles on it. Lady that bought it died and it sat in a barn for a year and a half. Radio still tuned to the Church stations.

                      A 2000 Stang 3.8L with 128k on it is the frontrunner atm. Here's to hoping it doesn't have any rust or cosmetic.

                            ....HE who hesitates...is LOST! keep looking, Sydney...you'll find a good car in your price range. Have you checked e-bay or individual listings near your province in Canada?

                              Yes, I've been frequenting kijiji and ebay for two months now. Nothing great seems to be popping up. But always by the time I can get a day off work I get a message saying sold!

                                Ah if only I could afford a GTO or GSX. My dream of a '67-'69 Wildcat is pretty much diminished by now too.
