Taurus SHO
Satisfies everything but the manual stipulation.

>>16465813
You could buy an m3 with a door warranty for less than that. Buying new is retarded.

>Must also be available in nitrous blue

Do you work for the defense industry? Or perhaps the Automotive OEMs?

Those specs are especially tailored to this specific car. I mean, if you want to buy an RS, just b uy an RS. But otherwise the Golf R, the WRX / STi, perhaps the S3,...

WRX Sti because the engine is mounted the proper way

>>16465826
This weighs half a ton more than the RS with the same torque output.

>>16465819
Traction in the north-east. Also would like to be able to use all the 300+ HP and not just spin the wheels.

>>16465813
Subaru WRX because it has real AWD.

>>16465813

Wait for the Raptor version of the new Ranger.

>>16465856
>Traction in the north-east.
so the north-east did not have cars till AWD was popular?
Protip for you, get a 3k civic and spend the 37k not being a pansy.

>>16465878
I wish they never face lifted the new ranger to match all their current cars, it's fucking ugly now

>>16465856

The OEM wheels are 19", which is a bit ridiculous for a car to be used in New England winters and ROADS. They will be ultra low profile for a car like that, and so will be rough riding, fragile to potholes, and lose grip easily on rough surfaces. And the only smaller option is -1, which means 18" - still low profile. And the options of 18" / 19" true winter tires is still limited so you have a sub-optimal experience in real snow and ice.

I'm not saying it's awful, but Ford decided to sacrifice it's true winter potential for styling and summer pavement performance and muh Big Brakes. Anybody in the Great Lakes will tell you that you don't want 30 profile tires on lightweight rims for winter driving.

But it'll be fun for at least 8 months of the year. And you'll get by the other 4. JUST like a FWD $3K Civic.

>>16465844
How is this tailored? Even if it's not new, what else could be considered? What used car would you be okay with dropping $40K on?

WRX isn't in the same class, STi has a 20+ year old engine. If I'm a little flexible with the S3, it still doesn't have the power and isn't manual.

Golf R is a fair point.

>>16465842
Dope* fucking autocorrect

>>16465909

You just answered your own question.

For $6K more you can get a BMW M240xi. But not a manual.

For .....

Look, you want the RS. It's a fine car, and of course the best at your specs. Just buy it.

Golf R or Suby
Don't really like how the focus looks

So? It's comfier, bigger, and much much more unassuming

>Things I would rather get instead of a Kia
How about a Hyundai?

>counting the rear hatch as a door
pls.

For me, the choice is an obvious one. The Hyundai Veloster Turbo is clearly the best car its it's class. No other $27,199 hatchback with an asymmetrical door layout even comes close to this kind of performance.

This car is an apex predator, there's nothing else that can even compete.

>>16466287

You literally know shit about cars and can't drive. Enjoy your koreanshit.

>>16466362
>$28k for a slow as fuck FWD kia/hyundai

Do your resale value a favor and buy a Focus ST. It's faster, better in every way, and won't be worth 10k in 3 years.

Hyundai?
As in THE Hyundai that decided a NA 3 cylinder diesel engine would be fine in a sedan?
THE Hyundai that produced and sold a sedan that would take over 20 seconds to get to 100 km/h?

It does matter, because it means Hyundai are the only ones doing anything right.

It has no class. It is literally a Hyundai Accent Coupe and is placed in the subcompact class.

Know how many subcompact coupes there are on the US market?
None.

The Veloster is a shitty Accent with a turbo thrown at it.

>>16465813
I have a 2017 wrx and I like it more than the sti but i drove the rs recently and it feels better than both. I think the rs is the best buy.

>>16466287

you're about 25k too low on price. In America, where OP is, the CLA45 AMG and GLA45 AMG (the equivalent models) are around $55k
