What is a good first car for a teen that's a honda?

My parents are loyal honda people, and my uncle works for Honda, so I'm probably going to look into Honda for a car. I'm not going to be getting my permit for over six more months, and then I have another six months before I get my provisional license, but I'm saving up for a car now (I am 16. I will be 17 when I get my permit)My mom drives an Odyssey and my dad drives a Civic Hybrid (I don't know the years). I know Honda has quality cars, and I want something that is somewhat fun. I love the Honda Element, especially in the Orange. I also like the look of the Honda Pilot, but I don't care for the colors all that much, so I am somewhat leaning towards the Element.Is there any information I can get about the Element? Is it a good first car? Does it hold up well? Will there be any problems that might not be as much of an issue with a more experienced driver? How is it price-wise? Any other good first cars by Honda?

who's paying for this first car? You can go to Honda.com and check out all the current models. It has all the info you need and you can customize the car of your dreams and get price quotes.

i have owned many hondas since1975. i am 72 years old. you can save by getting a demonstrator with full warranty.honda cr-v--savings in gas helps pay extra cost. i'm not sure but i think the rear floor still carries a small picnic table and vat for drinks. see video and design your own!http://automobiles.honda.com/cr-v/

I think pretty much all Honda autos have a good reputation for quality. It wouldn't be a bad idea to do some research though at a car site like msn autos or other places like that. I think about a Honda Civic coupes are kinda cool -and reliable.
