I was kidding Of course some kind of american muscle car is much more fun THE SOUND To the OP If you want fast and reliable car buy yourself a bimmer or some kind of volvo with turbo engine. You will be the fastest and drive will be comfortable ...
You're young, get something reasonable. Depending on where you live, a sports car could end up costing you $5,000 or more a year in insurance, if you can find a company that will insure you. Even the Trans Am is going to be expensive to insure if you live near a major city. Go with something like a VW GTI. It's sporty, but not so sporty that no one will want to insure you.
