I keep looking at it as “over 50% markup”It’s really almost a 16k adm when you factor in that complete bullshit “protection” package.

The Mazda 3 turbo in sedan or hatch are great cars that fit your criteria. I think the hatch premium turbo comes in 6 speed.
I drove one and liked it a lot but my son was reluctant to learn manual and ended up with auto premium turbo sedan.
The non-turbo is a great option too with mid 30’s mpgs.
I guess I should have updated this thread the other day but it’s been a busy week. After confirming with my dealer they also would not sell me a new SI at sticker I decided to pull the trigger on something else.i really do have a car in mind that is a manual transmission but i dont want to be steering you in the wrong direction. at first i really liked these cars but they did fade away rather quick. now its just a joke to talk about them , im sorry about that.
my daily is a 2018 mustang ecoboost PP and its amazing. i did daily a 3.5 ecoboost f150 for many years too before the new mustang.
so i recommend a 03 cobra or a new MACH 1 for your daily.
I can second the Mazda 3 recommendation as it would seem to fit. If you go AWD it is auto only. I owned a 3 PPTurbo and it was a great car but it doesnt compare to my Focus RS. The RS is my choice but they are older and the ride is not the best for long trips, but man are they a holligan car. They are fun.
