Thinking of getting my first car...

Get a used Civic or a Corolla....

They are very reliable!!!

I kind of like the talon. How much can you pay for insurance? I bet you will be anally penetrated, seeing as to how you are 17. The word "turbo" does not help your cause either.

insurance is a bitch, no lie, about 1600 a year us dollars.

what are good tires for winter, Michellin

The pilots suck in the snow. Use tirerack.com to view various tires winter and summer rankings.

[T-Bird]

the Bridgestone Blizzaks are pretty good winter tires.
For a little less money you can try the Pirelli winter 210's

Judging by the cars u decided ...... u will have a limited budget rite?
Even tho those car might just cost u around 10k, the insurance for sure will hurt u.

All that aside, Talon is right away the most moddable car around the year, as for the 240, u need winter tires for sure. My friend has one and the tail in snow is like a dog seeing a pile of bones. Prelude, is very common, it's everywhere, if u want exclusitivity (sorry about my spelling), I suggest u stay away from that.

Hope it helps

Thanks again guys.
