then should we keep all the nice car in museum with protection? Nice and ugly is base on whos scale? maybe for me, bmw is nice and $$$ car, but for someone else, just like buying a bigger size toy to their kids. Just like what I saying, there are no law says beginner should start with old car or any car is under $15,000.

I think what Ward is trying to say is that, teenagers in general are sometimes more careless and aren't careful so they shouldn't start off with a BRAND NEW 30k+ BMW. A lot of people when starting off with their license, are not yet extremely comfortable with driving and are therefore proned to hit things here and there. So regardless of how rich you mayyyy be.. wouldn't you as a parent who bought the car, feel less hurt if your kid scratched a 15k civic rather than a 30k+ BMW? Exactly.
Butttt I AM THE EXCEPTION because I'M THE BEST DRIVER. I'm kidding. |

The last civic was a best pick in car crashes and now comes with a stiffer structure and 6 front air bags. |

I don't know where you're getting your information but its insane. Also, you can't go and compare a 3series with a Civic. They're in 2 different classes. So what's was your point in this whole discussion? |

looks like i'm , anyhow, my point is different car is made for different market, there is no way to have one car that fits to everybody's taste. so it's totally normal for a new driver to drive new car, nothing regarding the price and/or how easy to damage it.

the hood/fenders on the honda are designed with the safety of pedestrians you hit in mind, that's why they're soft
they actually ran a commercial for the accord a few months back bragging about how safe the car was for the pedestrians it hits |

Buying a new car for a new driver may be safer, cooler.... but in the long run I think people learn to appreciate things more when they have to pay for them themselves. don't get me wrong, a new driver'd be nuts to pass up any new car offered to them but the car desicion is a good chance to teach values to the youngns that parents often screw up. |
