Consider Honda Ciivic hatch sport 1.5L turbo 6-speed
My '00 Audi A4 Avant (wagon) 2.8 5-speed finally needed more work that it was worth. The '18 Honda checked all the boxes. Bike fits (no problem!). check. Manual trans. check. 180HP/6500rpm redline. check. Mileage (32+mpg commuting). check. Fits 5. check. FUN to drove (sport suspension, stock 18 rims 235/40 tires, sticks in the corners). check. Honda quality and reliability (hopefully check). Plus it looks great with center mounted exhaust. Better looking then the Corolla IMHO. Under 25k out the door (tax title license extended 10yr/100K mile bumper to bumper warranty). Built in the UK for the primary market for hot hatch cars, which is the EU.

My wife also drives an Outback, but the (really nice) 3.6R. We've been talking about downsizing to one Outback and a small hatch, such as the Corolla, Golf, or maybe even the Kia Niro. |

Wait till the end of the year or early spring and they will sell them with huge discounts (at least last year they did, 30%). Almost pulled the trigger in spring on a 2018 but found out that for the '19 models they increased the warranty from 4 to 6 years and decided to wait. BMW 328d xdrive looks very tempting too but is in a different (price) league. |

Looks like the perfect cyclist’s car . . . once you drive it, you’ll want to ride your bike EVERYWHERE.
I’ve got a Matrix. Unlike others here, I hate it. Yeah, the utility is great, but it’s a total dog, gets mediocre gas mileage, has super loud road noise, rattles, shakes, and generally just feels cheap (maybe cuz it is). I’ve been thru just about every front suspension part and 2 rounds of wheel bearings. It refuses to die, but since it’s basically fully depreciated, I just endure it’s sucktitude and spend the money on bikes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Honda Civic sport is not AWD
[QUOTE=jh_on_the_cape;2439420]Which model Honda? Is it AWD like the quattro?
But neither is the Corolla. All trak is worth a look. Friend has one and likes it. No manual though but does have paddle shifters. Gas mileage is not as good as my Honda.
