Car for my little bro

[icingdeath88]

Well guys, it's time for my younger brother to get his first car. He's 17, a junior in high school and has a budget of $2000. He lives in Tampa too.

What are your recommendations? Keep in mind it doesn't have to be the most practical thing possible, though that's always a plus. My other brother has a 240 and I have the SVX. So between me and him we know our way around '90s sports cars decently well. I'm not sure that an SVX is the way to go, because of how expensive they can be and how hard it can be to find a good one. Not in a huge hurry though and he said he would like an SVX, so perhaps.

What do you all think? What would you get for your high school brother's first car?
