my first carrr
im 16 and i live in illinois. and im a girl.
im gonna be getting my first car. and since its my first car im not gnna be get a real expensive one.
my brother got a ford escape for his first car. and it had nothing but problems and we spent soo much money fixing it. but now he has a altima coupe and its like his life haha. but hes 18 now.
im in love with the scion xb. but not the new version. theres cheap ones over here for about 9,000 but my family/friends think its so ugly. so im sure my parents wont buy it for me.
i was just wonder what is another good first car for me?
ps. my dad is really picky when it comes to cars. he only likes like toyata, honda, volkswagon and that kinda stuff.
anddd for some reason i dont like really low cars cause i hate feeling like im drving on the ground. i like being up and being able to see.
but thanks so much !

Want to answer more questions in the Technology category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Cars?
The honda elantra or honda civic are the highest safety rating cars for teens and are also very cheap when you get them used.
May I also reccomend a car thats under 100,000 miles, because usually after that is when you need to pay the most for maintenence,
good luck :)

As I have suggested many times, Honda and Toyota ARE the way to go (though I must wonder why your dad likes volks too, there really not comparable to honda/toyota).
Scions really arent anything too special, aside from there styling.
I do not recommend getting an older US made car like your brother did, you'll eend up spending alot of money ad time in the shop.
And since its your first car you should be TOO picky. Besides, your dad is probably going to end up paying, right? That pretty much means that the most you can do is offer your preference, but hes going to be the one making all the decisions unless you fork over some cash.
If you want some height you could consider a Honda CRV, or a Toyota Rav4, but dont dismiss other cars just because they are "low to the ground". You'll probably be so stoked to actually have your very own car that things like that wont really matter.
Anyway, good luck.
