at that age i can tell you that you are going to damage a car. it just happens. my advice would be miata. similar platform that will allow you to develop as a driver affordably.
I did not intend to say anything bad about front wheel drive. What I meant was that drivers who have only experience FWD tend to instinctively react in the wrong way when a RWD car gets loose. If he has only driven RWD then that will not be an issue. He may still not react correctly but it will not be because he is used to FWD. It will be because he is totally inexperienced.
