A friend of mine will be getting his teenage daughter her first car. He wants to go used (which I think is smart). He agrees that something too powerfull for a first car is a bad idea, however, he hardly wants her to drive a turd bucket.

The B5 S4 (completely stock) came up. With 250hp, it is plenty powerfull, but not something totally unrealistic (powerwise) for a new driver. I wanted to get some opinions... Doable? Too much power? Just right?

And yes, his daughter is pretty competent and also wants to do Audi track events with it.
