Hi,

I was looking around another forum and for a novice car they recommended the 240SX, 300ZX, MR2 Turbo, and a Prelude. Would you agree that these are also good cars for a novice?

Thanks!

I'd recommend the 240SX and the MR2 in non-turbo, the others might be a bit much for a novice (depending on how "novice you actually are", like have you ever learned to recover from a spin where the tail kicks out or had any training in driving other than for everyday use). But otherwise, yeah they are at the minimum decent cars, and can be really good cars if you fix them up right and know what you are doing behind the wheel.

Notice every car except one is RWD, and are a few of the import worlds finest cars. I had a Legend for the longest time, and the day i had to drive my LS400, the change to RWD made all the difference in the world.

Well, RWD (and good AWD like the new Acura AWD) are for drivers. FWD takes too much of the skill and fun of driving out of the equation, but it's generally safer for the average automobile user.

300ZX's are nice but because of the all wheel stearing it tends to over stear 240's are ok but there slow and mr2's have decent handeling but miata's are supreme or s2000's
