Have you considered something like the Ford Focus ST or a used GTI? Both have great power to weight ratios, are fun cars to drive, and would cost at least $10k less to start. I get that your parents are footing the bill for most of the car, but can't help but feel there are better "first cars" for a young, inexperienced performance car buyer. Even an FRS would be a better first purchase IMHO. Great handling, and manageable power.
