this is my daughters email im using it so she knows im not lieing to her NOW.. who thinks a BMW z4 is a good safe car if not think of a 2 door convertible car for a 16 year old thats safe but "cute" price doesnt matter. THANKS GUYS
she can drive okay... we live in california the san fernando valley
be honest because i dont know if i want her driving this because shes my only girl and i dont want anything to happen to her so if you know any safe cars that are convertible and a 2 seater tell me
by the way she has had her heart set on this car since she was 13 for 3 years shes been begging me and besides that we had our own agreement i mean anyone know any other safe convertibles in mind not a 1965 pick up something new and nice

Um, well the add. info changed my answer. The Z4 would be awful for your daughter. It's a performance car, and she won't be careful no matter what. Most teenage daughters whose parents can afford a BMW Z4 are going to crash while putting on make-up/talking on phone/ listenting to radio. However, as a teenage boy I can say most guys would crash racing. :P

Buy a her a '95 toyota camry and she won't die in a fiery 65 car pileup, and you won't lose tons of cash. Her 2nd or 3rd car can be a Porsche Boxster S. trust me, don't get her an amazing first car.

The Z4 is an awsome looking car and safe for a coupe it has a 4 star rating on both side and front. So this would be an ideal car for a 16 year old girl, also maybe a 328I Convertible would be nice because has 4 seats and more room for her friends :D

Horrible first car. Horrible.

If she doesn't crash it herself, somebody will hit her. Whether it be in the school parking lot or at a stop light, whatever. It is going to get wrecked.

Also convertible's are NOT safe. The body is less rigid and in an accident the chance of getting seriously hurt is increased dramatically. Also, in a rollover accident, you are pretty much guaranteed death.

BUT, if money isn't a problem. Fine.
But keep in mind you are going to be buying a new Z4 every 4 months.
