Nothing wrong in you knowing nothing about cars.
first of all let congratulate you on your first car.

as you go for a shopping, there are wide range of cars available in the market today.
first decide what is the range(cost of investment) on which you want your car to be.

And then look for the type of car you want to ride in.
if you are peculiarly eager to own a sedan or a hatch, try for them in the net rather just typing car in the search bar.

and then input your range of investments in the type of cars you are searching for.
here are few links i would like to share for you.

Ping me in for any doubts

If you are buying a car for the first time. I would like to suggest you to go for a used car. As it will give you some experience and after some time you can sell it with much less depreciation in cost. When you are confident of driving buy a new car. Carsangrah.com gives you platform to find used car within your budget. You can again sell it also by posting free.
