Default getting my first car soon!!

hi im pretty new to this forum, and i need some help. im 16 and looking for a job so i can get some money for a car and other such expenses. but i want to make sure i do plenty of research. the main thing i look for in a car is responsive handling and being lightweight. i have only ever driven with my mom in either a 97 nissan sentra or a 08 honda fit sport (thats a fun *** car, but its an automatic, blehhhh)
any car that i ever buy is going to be a manual. i have a few choices of cars i could get. if u could tell me the power, torque, weight, and general prices of these cars, that would be helpful. and if u find an offer, please post the url. ive already found a couple o guys willing to sell their hondas to me for a low price. and theyre both in good condition
1st choice-Honda CRX
2nd choice-Honda Civic EG6 (coupe-$2500 or hatch-$3000)
3rd choice-Honda Civic EK9 (coupe or hatch)
4th choice-Acura Integra/RSX (2dr any year)
5th choice-1978-80 Nissan Datsun 280ZX
thats what ive narrowed it down to. if u could also write ur opinion of how these cars drive that would be very helpful.
Thank you!

No sorry to say,my wife has a 2000 Accord we bought new and I love that car,I was raised on muscle cars of the 60's and 70's. Had several of them.

The first time you buy a car is pretty exciting huh?!...I think the ones you're considering are all good choices...definitely get a manual in whatever...automatics are just boring!
