I am looking for a first car, any suggestions?

I am turning 16 soon and I need a car. I live in Northern Michigan, so it has to be able to drive in the cold, it has to not break the bank, has to be safe to appease parental units, and potentially have some decent horsepower, too. Anyone know a vehicle that fits the bill? Oh, and it has to not be a byword for "mechanical problems." via /r/cars http://ift.tt/2tKFRFI
