how about a honda fit? mine was $19K cash otd for the 5MT sport back 3yrs ago. no issues, extremely practical, and pretty fun to drive actually. i got swifts, tanabe muffler, and some generic 16x7 wheels with DWS. oh, and a double-din HU, intermittent wiper mod, some others. i cant remember.. like factory door sills, factory cf trim, factory leather knob, etc. which i added later.

Something about the dash/windshield of the new Hondas makes me feel like I'm driving a bubble. A former work acquaintance had a Fit and while it was roomy, I couldn't see myself getting one.

I feel the same way in my Civic! Feels like I'm driving out a glass upside down bathtub!

for me the glass is fine, but that THICK a-pillar they started using on the honda's block my view sometimes. i dont like that. visibility wise and overall driving dynamic is good for a cheap car.

speaking of bubbles, pretty much any hatch will be like driving a bubble for its boxy shape. i dont mind it, as u can tell. But i do mind it taking it down the expressway on a windy day.
