- VW Golf R (but it is hard to find, I'm not a huge fan of AWD)
- Audi S3 (not a fan of AWD)
- Mercedes CLA coupe (the rear is ugly AF and is AWD)
- Infiniti Q60 (wheelbase too long for my taste, price would be a hard one too)
- Lexus RC 350 (heavy AF and lazy transmission)
- Subaru BRZ (loud interior and poor torque curve)
- Mazda Miata (I need a larger trunk)
- Mustang GT (my garage is only 8' wide, so it would be annoying to park it every day)

Having 6MT option is a huge plus, not many of these above offer 6MT option.
RWD is a huge plus
I will daily drive it, so having relatively low miles (under 30k) is important.

Is there something else I should look at?
Mercedes C43, used Caddy ATS-V, Audi TTS + RS3, and Jag XE 30t or S all might round out the upper end of that list, also maybe Mini Cooper JCW. Similar list to what I explored before going with the 240i. Absolutely no regrets.
