Ok so I have a younger brother who will be 16 in about a year. We've been looking into cars for him and I wanna know if anybody has any suggestions. Keep in mind though, that the car cant be too powerful cause hes only 16, it cant be too old cause hes gonna have to rely on it, and he will only be allowed to do mild tuning. We're looking at the $20,000 and under price bracket here. I say he goes with either a used WRX or a used RSX type S. Tell me what you guys think.
