I need to know, if one were to compare the two cars which would be better. I might get a new car, and I need to know which one is better in all subjects. I will mostly look for speed, acceleration, safety, stuff like that, and looks as well too. This car would be for a 15 year old, or maybe when I am 16. Thank you Chantal

this guy is crazy yo check it out your sixteen instead off the 100,000 you might spend in insurence and the 15 to 20 grand you plan on droping on a new ride
just buy used your gonna feel better in the long run like when your at the shop cause you read import tuner changed a cam and killed your ride
dude go get a civic 95 or under learn how to drive corner and speed with out killing yourself then
and if you want safety buy a volvo

oh no not a nissan pulsar nx.. get ready for regular trips to the repair shop.. a used car would do you better if you get in a wreck it wont hurt you mentally as much. if its someone elses fault then that used car just made you money to go buy a new car.. i like imports especially acura and honda you could still get a 94 integra for 5 to 55 hundred and not worry about smog inspections jus saftey and it should last you and give good training on how to drive... learn respect on the road thats the most important.. people nowadays have no respect or common courtesey... i really wouldnt worry about adding mods or tuning your only 16??? you got a long way to go...... have patients first... the rest will come. jus my 2cents...no matter what kind of car it is proper maintance can make any car last.....

I would go with the eclipse since your a girl. I think it would fit you alot better.. And as for insurance.. the insurance companies are sexist so it wont be near as bad for you as it would a guy. Dont get a civic. NO RICER.. Also. Work at a full time job all summer.. 8-5 every day.. some weekends.. overtime etc.. and pay for atleast part of your car. that way you will appreciate it alot better.. and take way better care of it.. and getting in a wreck with your new car?!?..ive been driving since i was 8.. never been in a wreck.. never been close to being in a wreck.. as long as ya pay attention and some idiot dont smash into ya its all good...

guy girl it dont matter across the nation highschool kids have been rappen it up more and more so if you range from like 17 to 25 years of age insurence is high because your more of a statistic liabilty now no offense but a used car suits you beeter in the sense its like building your credit buy the car run it for 3 years ( which aint a long time) show your responsible and watch the premium come down hell you cant even rent a car until your 25
but the way around all that use your moms name pay her the cash saves you all the drama

ok thanks, I was thinking of working this summer near my auto shop, but because I'm only 15, to work there you have to be at least 18 due to insurance and their machinery they have. I don't know where, but I want to find out really soon too. I was thinking of working at my local Auto Supply store thast very close to me.
If none of those works, my grandma was thinking of buying me a SL500.

you can get a job at an Auto Supply store at 15, I thought you had to be 18? Where do you live? Go with granny's SL500.
