He wreaked a Volvo at 16 and you're going to buy him another new car?!
I think he needs to get better lessons. Driving is a not a god given right, even if you live in LA.
Unless he's the most responsible 16 year old kid with even more responsible friends, he shouldn't be driving a Saab (very easy and temping to drive really fast)
If he IS the most responsible 16 year old, he would proactively tell you that he won't want the expensive new luxury (sports) car, but rather put the money toward his education or something more worthwhile.
There are tons of very safe used cars on the market, especially in the California area, where theres no snow/salt. (More older cars). Consider an older Saab or MB from the early to mid 90s.
The safest car is the one where the driver won't put in a dangerous position. Its the driver, not the car.
