What type of car should I get- 15 y/o girl, compact width but high up?

My dad recommended the honda CRV but it's kind of like a family/grannie car.

I'm a 15 year old girl, just got my license, and I like to be a little bit higher up when I'm driving just because I feel safer.

However, I also want the "cool" type of car, a teen-friendly one, etc. Not too long, like the CRV which is 13 feet long yet shorter than I am in height. Just something simple with two rows of seats, the ability to play music, easy to drive and comfortable. I like the type of seats that aren't far back and indented but instead high and parallel to the ground (I'm tall but short waisted).

And, of course, It would need to be something I can find on Craigslist for 10-12k or less.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations!
P.S. If you are my age, what type of car do you/would you own?
