My love of cars and time spent working on them are the best memories I have of growing up and spending time with my father.

THe 944 makes a solid choice in my opinion for several reasons

1) You will be sharing an interrest in and participation in a common marque..leads to a lot of father son opportunities.

2) The 944 is a solid and in most ways very modern car with let's face it very cool 16 year old appeal.

3) It's not new. It will need some wrenching and maintainance which helps him understand the car he's driving ( Makes him safer and probably more respectful of it) and provides lot's of quality father son time. Sounds like you already have a lot of that, I just think it takes planning to maintain it once they have the freedom that comes with Keys.

The search alone could be a really great educational experience.

Just my thoughts
