    All would be good. The G3 & G4 Eclipse were shit,Hyundai would be good but the Honda is the most reliable.

    Honda's are very reliable. the eclipses are trash unless if you know how to make them quick. the Hyundai is just another econobox. my recommendation is to stay away from money pits such as the late 90s-early 00s cavilers and Chrysler fwd cars. i would also look into getting 1st gen Ford Focus or a 90s ford, chevy, or dodge truck.

    Lolwut, FWD Chryslers weren't moneypits, i've seen the engine outlive the car itself.

    Plot twist: The car lasted 1 year and the engine broke the day after

    Also get anything that you aren't afraid to bang up. Americans (I assume you're american) can't drive for sh*t and 15 year old americans even more so (no offense, but with the driving education americans get it's just inevitable). I'd recommend anything that's fuel efficient, durable and reliable (an old civic or corolla would be the first choice). 5th gen civics are plenty of fun because they're lightweight and really responsive. Handling isn't bad either.
