if he wants a mod friendly car then he should get a civic. If he wants a nice car to just drive, then go with the protege.

Everytime my cousin asks me for advice when buying cars he does the opposite anyway.  
I told him he was paying too much for his current truck but he bought it anyway.

Im serious about the asking price on mine. I want a truck.
