Mind you, this is for next year and new developments may arise (any extrapolated information is welcome).
Right now I am looking at the following:
'04-05 BMW M3 (terrible gas mileage though)
'09 Scion tC (hopefully '10 will have RWD, FWD is a little iffy)
'09 Honda Civic (FWD only from what I understand)
Basically, I am looking for suggestions and recommendations. My primary concerns are reliability, performance (acceleration being the primary factor) and handling (tight turns, as little body roll as possible, small enough to squeeze through down-town and surrounding areas).
Money is a concern as well and I wouldn't want to go much higher than, say $25K. It also >has< to be a manual.
Also I am a tad confused on the numbers between Civics and tCs as they seem very much alike in a lot of respects.
I welcome any other suggestions besides the 3 listed above with a short summary explaining why that should be my pick.
