    One thing I will say is the interior in my 2005 Legacy GT is miles ahead of my friends 2011 STi in my opinion.

    Of those I would say the Legacy or the S60. Sti and Evo not family sedan. The CTS-V is fun but can be tricky in the winter.

    I don't technically have a family I just like the look and practicality of sedans and wagons over 2 doors.

    Not worried about the winter too much, I have an Xterra for that.

    Also interested in any suggestions people have.

    Maxima = fwd, no thanks

    IS350 = too exspensive, not dealing with the slowness of the 250

    BMW's = maybe M5 e39 but pretty pricey for km's and age. thinking about 335 but would be pushing budget end up getting an early model which from what I hear has some pretty serious problems.

    No matter the car it will without a doubt be modded.

    I was looking at the CTS-V's a few months ago (the current 560hp ones), and really liked them. In the class, it had the nicest interior IMO. In the end, it wasn't enough to push me from my C63.

    Anyways, recommending you look at used C63's, if you can find them. People seem to love the car, so it's rare seeing good ones up for sale. You'll probably start seeing more in the next few months, when the first batch of 3 year leases start expiring.

    If IS350 is too expensive I doubt C63s would be in the picture either. Also I just saw must be manual.

    Not too many sporty sedans with manuals out there. 3 series, G sedans, A4s, Manual TSX is very fun even if it's a bit slow and FWD.

    I don't think rage read the whole post... sub 30k is key.

    G8 GT's only ever came in auto in Canada.

    Honda accord is not in any sense of the word "sporty"
