at the age of 17, w/ a V6 I would wait for a year and save some money and go to a good driving school. stock V6 has enough potential to kill you as it is.
don't take what I said personally, I'm not trying to be an old fart pain in the butt, but just think about it. a good driving scool will give you more potential than any mods you can get for twice the amount.
