Help me PLEASE Discussion at work 200 1986

A person learning how to drive shouldn't have an automatic, 200bhp, 500W stereo, climate control, and a sloping front hood which can't be seen from the driver's seat. New drivers need to pay attention to what the car is doing, the other traffic is doing, weather conditions, and making sure that they stay close to the speed limit.
240's have great brakes, so long as the tires are good.
240's have 110bhp, acceptable but not neck snapping.
240's have a front and rear deck which can be seen by the driver, leting them know where the corners of the car really are.
240's have a so-so sound system, letting the new driver hear sirens, etc.
240's have real steel in their body panels.
240's have crumple zones.
240's have side I-beams.
240's have a high seat height, allowing for better visibility.
240's DO NOT have go fast car status.
