Sure look:
My complaint is I can't find everything I want in 1 car at a reasonable price (sub $50k to me is reasonable, and I'll buy used).
Sub $50k CHECK
1) Real back seats - 2 door is fine, but prefer 4 door, HUGE back seats CHECK
2) At least 16 lbs / HP or / ft-lbs of torque - ie. a 100 HP or ft-lbs car is fine if it weighs 1600 lbs
210hp (17hp/lb) or 255 hp(14hp/lb) 3600 lb curb weight, so CHECK
3) RWD or AWD. Last resort, FWD with an LSD.
RWD, CHECK
4) weighs less than 3500 lbs overall (really, I'm not asking for much) - 3200 max would be better, but seems hard to find these days
Ok it's 3600lbs, but it's only 100lbs more than your asking for, so not too bad, I'd say CHECK
5) manual or VW DSG
Manual CHECK
6) leather interior
CHECK
7) OEM sports suspension that means it (as much as any OEM sports suspension even means it)
CHECK
super grippy, well bolstered front seats
Well bolstered, not super grippy though hard to get super grippy with leather. Half CHeck
9) decent brakes
Check
10) SABs with curtains
Check
11) HIDs
CHECK
12) doesn't have plasticy body kit garbage all over it (wings, etc.)
AND............. CHECK
