depends on what you want, are you gonna want fwd rwd, something reliable, easy to swap, easy to mod, good gas mileage, find out what things are most important (i realize these are not all) it really narrows your search

good idea for me to tell you that also i guess... id like something easy to mod however steering away from civics i have nothing against them except that there everywhereand i dont really want one.the gas milage isnt really a big deal mostly because i dont want anything except for a 4cyl rite now, the choice between fwd and rwd dosent really matter to me rite now, and ofcourse i want something reliable

if you where to get an import..stay'n away from the civic's. i 'd recommend the integra jus becuase if you play with the gst n dont follow the manual and not build it rite..you will have problems, it happend to everyone of my buddies gst's. i have a buddy of mine sell'n a teggy turbo right now in badass condition and is quick...i kno it a lil more then ur price range but well worth the money. there's a lot done but can have more done looks and motor wise.

i had a 91 rx7 for my first car, just wasnt practical, it needed so much money and me being 16 at the time making minimum wage didnt not work out well. But a nissan would be great,more reliable and cheaper parts.
