Can you give more details on what you are going to be using the car for? besides just waht you want? You looking for a car you can make a project out of? you looking for a sports car, a eco car?
Ye of little faith.
If you hadnt said '1st car' i'd say get an RX7 TurboII - but i dont want to see another one of those get wrecked
1989 Subaru justy AWD manual - those things ROCK and they look like a tercel too

Gets wicked good gas mileage too (being a 3-cyl and all)
