Whats a good second car
Whats a good second car (for 19 year old)?—By Patrick
I wanted to get a GTI, but the insurance was close to $400/mth

Why is your insurance so high? If the GTI is 400/mth, a WRX will be even higher.
Consider a small pickup. The insurance is usually cheaper. Better yet, talk to your insurance agent. The agent can give you some idea of what kind of car is cheaper to insure.
Even better, shop insurance companies. Some companies are harder on young people than others are. I have two teen age children and have never paid more than $90 a month for insurance on either of their cars, but part of that is because I insure several vehicles and my home with the same company.

Try to find an older Japanese car that isn't a Civic or Corolla or similar. Typically Nissans and Mazdas are good for this. The reason I say avoid Civic and Corolla is that they're not only common cars in wrecks with young drivers involved, but they are easy to steal and therefore are easy targets. That said, your insurance will also be quite high.
I'm actually very partial to Honda- (21 year old in a 2003 Odyssey and LOVE it)
If your insurance company is as stupid as ICBC, try to also avoid 2 doors and the color red. (Reason? Pffff- ask ICBC…)
The cheapest insurance I ever paid for a car was that for a 1974 Volkswagen Camper Van. If you like the old VWs, they're easy to work on yourself, usually increase in value with age and have cheap insurance.
