Easy. Blow about 1200 bucks and get your son an old ricer of some sort he can make a rattlecan out of and keep him out of the Crossfire.

Here's one : 2013 Civic for $1500 https://www.carsforsale.com/vehicle/details/30587837
( Gotta be a story there ! - I watched the video, she also states $1500 in it. Blown engine / tranny maybe ?)
