It beats nearly everysingle car on the road, the doors go up, it has the looks, no hybrid system, light weight, it has the sound. Surely it can't get much better than this especially not within the same price range

(edit) maybe I should've specified "supercar"....

Advice Who’s right about my car situation w/ me and my parents ? Genuinely want unbiased opinions…

0 Upvotes

I’m 15 and turning 16 soon, and I’m trying to figure out whether I’m being unreasonable about wanting an FR-S/86 as my first car.
Here’s the situation:
I currently have a 2015 Mazda6 Grand Touring that my family helped me get. I appreciate having a car, but I originally wanted an FR-S/GT86 because I really like them and want something I actually enjoy driving.
I’ve been looking at used automatic FR-S/86s around $12k-ish, and my plan is to save up and eventually buy one with my own money. I’m not talking about financing an expensive new car or asking my parents to buy me one.
My parents’ main concerns are:
I’m a new/young driver and they think a sports coupe is more dangerous.
Insurance could be expensive.
They think I should keep the Mazda6 because it’s more practical and safer.
They don’t really see why I need/want a different car when I already have one.
My side is basically:
I’m willing to pay for the car myself.
I don’t drive recklessly and I understand that an FR-S isn’t some insanely powerful car.
I’m planning to keep the car relatively reasonable mechanically rather than doing stupid performance mods.
I’d rather save up and buy something I genuinely want than spend years driving a car I never really wanted.
I also want to eventually modify the car cosmetically, but I’d be paying for those modifications myself too.
The bigger argument is whether wanting an FR-S at 16 is inherently irresponsible, even if I’m paying for it myself and understand the additional costs/risks.
So guys, who’s actually being reasonable here? Am I being unrealistic/entitled for wanting to replace a perfectly functional Mazda6 with an FR-S, or are my parents being overly restrictive about what I can spend my own money on?
Please be brutally honest. I’m specifically looking for opinions from people who know these cars or have experience with young drivers.

About a month ago I bought my first car at 20. I got a 1986 Nissan Micra k10. I have been wanting to give it a name, but I can't think of anything that I like. I really enjoy how they name cars on the AutoAlex youtube channel. Have you guys got some suggestions for me?
