Not exactly safe on rainy days. With an empty bed, the rear-end wags out very easily.Whats wrong with a truck? I see 99% of people want to buy their kid a car for their first vehicle. Nothing wrong with a truck.
SWEET car, but way too much car for a first time driver. It's a 300+ horsepower car.Nissan 350z possible good car ? I been searching for 2 week . Whatever come first
if your daughter is up to it, driving a stick is a skill that is best learned at a young age and it will pay dividends for many years.
Hard to park, gas guzzling, expensive to operate, more prone to rollover, poor handling, poor braking…Whats wrong with a truck? I see 99% of people want to buy their kid a car for their first vehicle. Nothing wrong with a truck.
And insurance cost would probably be pretty high, especially if she's late teens, early 20s.SWEET car, but way too much car for a first time driver. It's a 300+ horsepower car.
Reality is many first time drivers here are driving even more powerful vehicles. 5 of my daughters friends use their parent's Tesla's which would destroy any Nissan Z in real world acceleration.SWEET car, but way too much car for a first time driver. It's a 300+ horsepower car.
I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters and my dad gave each kid a vehicle at 16. We all started with a stick. Dumb example, if I had a daughter dating a guy with a Mustang with a stick, I’d want her to be able to drive it if they went to a bowling alley and he got drunk.My daughter drove my car on back roads from a young age. Took driving lessons and got her license. We always have at least two cars around so she just borrowed one of ours for the first few years. Finally at age 23 she wanted her own car and requested a manual transmission. My car and my wife's cars are automatics. I helped her pick a used manual transmission car and she was driving it pretty well after about two weeks.
Now she works in an industrial setting, usually in the office and a little bit outside. Once in a while some truck or industrial service equipment will show up with a manual transmission and it has to be moved. A lot of scared big young men hanging staring at the extra pedal. She often has to go out and move it for them. This seems to garner her a lot more respect and changes the men's attitude towards her.
My point is, if your daughter is up to it, driving a stick is a skill that is best learned at a young age and it will pay dividends for many years.
Bad choice in vehicles as well for a 16 year old girl. Heck, a 4 banger Civic can be modded to bow the iPad off that Tesla. My point is, 16 year old girls don't need to be handed high performance sports cars as their first cars. It's just plain irresponsible.Reality is many first time drivers here are driving even more powerful vehicles. 5 of my daughters friends use their parent's Tesla's which would destroy any Nissan Z in real world acceleration.
Big negative. Care to line up your daughter's friend's rents' Tesla next to my friend Russell's TT Z32?Tesla's which would destroy any Nissan Z in real world acceleration.
The OP is asking for advice. Just because some parents let their kids drive their Tesla or buy their kid a V8 Mustang or some other foolish car doesn't change anything.Reality is many first time drivers here are driving even more powerful vehicles. 5 of my daughters friends use their parent's Tesla's
