Because a 16yo can talk his dad into buying him an S2000 cause dad see Honda as reliable...how many can go to a local dealership and buy a T1?

imo your hp should be related to your driving experience cause in some hands a geo metro is a weapon of mass destruction!!!

well, not experience, but your responsability

I feel that I can handle the s2000 fine, I keep it in control and at speeds where I will not get pulled over, but I do have fun on some back roads that I know well. However, I also realize that I do not have too much driving experience and do not push the car on the street.

On the interstate this means that I am passed by tons of geos, priuses, POS cars and other powerless vehicles who just decide to set their cruise control (if they have it) higher than mine.

The most important safety feature is the one sitting behind the steering wheel.

EXACTLY!!!

I remember when I went to get my license my dad was a state patrol officer and when I passed he made me go through the tactical and evasive driving course so I would "be better equipped to handle the car"

Not a smart thing to teach a kid with free time...oh and my first car wa a 78 caprice...retired detectives car!

Man we used to spin and slide the crap out of that thing before we knew what drifting even was!
