19 year old boy trying to get a new car

The Tc has nothing like it, so it stands apart and looks unique. It also has a lot of options from Toyota that you can add right away as well as a good aftermarket already. The Tiburon is pretty nice, too, especially the newer V6 version, but I don't know anything about their reliability.
I agree about the Tc. Good value, toyota build, and decent power.

dont let anyone influence u on what to buy at the end of the day its you money and your car, get what you want so that u will be happy
At 22 I bought an Evo, which is different from 19, but try and get a quote first before jumping to conclusions.
Seriously, if you've got a clean record and don't live in a state from Hell (Cali, NJ, NY etc)

i was thinking about:
Hyundai Tiburon
Mazda3
Mitsubishi Ralliart Lancer
Acura RSX (but insurance seems high on that too)
and a Scion Tc (but it doesnt seem to appeal alot to me i guess)
and man my account still works after 2-3 years of not using it ha.

No offence by the way.On the other note.. How about the New civic SI?.... I have seen some on the road and they dont look that bad.
Warr, obviously you didn't read what the guy wrote. His main concern was insurance and you immediatly tell him to go for the "coupe", which too alot of insurance company reads "sports car", which = higher insurance. I suggest you re-read his post and make a more aware comment.
Looks are subjective
That is true, but it comes with a hefty price tag, your much better off buying from an aftermarket company.
To the thread starter, please let us know what your looking to do with the car(s). What I will tell you is, right out the box the ralliart is the fastest of the bunch.

edit: oh ya you are not a boy at 19 wtf?
my gf is looking at similarly priced cars and as of this week and after actually going to look at some she's on the tC (although 3 weeks ago it was a wrangler, then a miata, so who knows what it'll be next week). i really like the 3 but after looking at them she liked the tC better plus it is cheaper. i'd rather see her go new, but if she goes used she'll also consider a WRX, a mini cooper s, an srt4 and a mazdaspeed protege. the ralliart is not on the list of possibilities
