If you've got a good indy near by him, then a NG900 or early 9-3 sounds like a great choice. You can still find one in great shape if you try, the get decent fuel economy, good for hauling stuff around, safe handling, and while it's got some power the base turbo is really not that fast by modern standards (it's a little scary that kids must be getting hand-me-down 270hp Accords and Altimas by now). If you're sending him off somewhere with no car knowledge and no trusted indy I would maybe think about something Japanese.
