Thinking about an SC430
#17
Personally, I have a 15 yo daughter that "thinks" she gets my 430 next year.....WRONG on soooo many levels. First it is a small car with a v8 and what I consider too much power for a 1st time driver. Second it will be her first car and I know what I did to my first car and how I treated it. Kids will be kids but not in my 430!! She gets he mothers 08 equinox.....or she walks.......end of conversation. LOL!!

If teenagers could pick their own cars, the high school parking lot would be filled with Corvettes.
For the most part, the lots are filled with Honda Civics, so perhaps there is hope for the future.

Driving through the supermarket parking lot with the top down yesterday a cute 16 year old girl gave the car a double take and gave me a smile. I'm old enough that she could be my grand daughter.
The weather has been perfect for top down driving here in a Florida the last few months. I just have to remember to wear a ball cap so I don't get my bald spot sun burnt.

Buy a used 2002 or 2003 SC and an RX300. You can easily buy both for your $30K budget.
I just bought a 2007 SC430 with 11K miles on it for $32K, but it's practically a brand new car. A 2002 with 90K miles will be almost as nice.

I already have a RX and my kids hate it. They don't want to be known as a "soccer mom".
Also if I bought them an Accord they would be destined to a "doom of uncoolness."
I'm just using my kids as a cover because I would love to have an SC, but I have too many cars according to my wife.
