Statistically, new teen drivers are the safest in large, family sedans. For the amount you wish to spend, you might get the most for your money with a Buick Lesabre. You can check Ebaymotors.com and Autotrader.com to see what is available.
The most practical used cars for a first time owner are a Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic. Both have long useful lives, are reliable, and get good gas mileage.
How times have changed! I bought my first used car, a 1952 Chevy 4 door sedan, for $100.00. My mother was not happy. She thought I spent too much.

The choice is up to you however to make sure you get a good one take a friend who has some knowledge of motor vehicles when you get ready to buy. Check the following things:
1. Millage
2. Take a look at the engine. (Check condition and fluid levels)
3. Look underneath for leaks. If it's dripping oil after you test drive it - FORGET IT! You are going to have problems.
4. See how it feels and sounds when you test drive it.

Chev cavalier, 2 dr of course- not a Z24 or even an LS sport, because of the extra insurance.

A import vehicle, you can save money on gas and almost get away maintenance charge on them. Most will require a oil change.
