Buying an AE88 as a first car?

Don't get an AE86, don't get it's mid engined brother the MR2, get another RWD car such as BMW or as stated an MX5 - these cars are cheaper and will teach you a lot about driving a RWD.

They are a totally different animal to FWD cars which you will be learning in.

No offence, but drivers aged 18-25 in whatever country do have accidents very soon after getting their licenses and it breaks my heart to see someone buy a classic and iconic car like this only to wrap it around a tree.

I did this in a Peugeot 205 when I found out what lift off over steer was and it taught me a lot!

Also when you feel you are experienced enough make sure you have VERY deep pockets or a limitless supply of money.
