Hard to say with this info. Great performance, ride quality, and interior luxury can all be had for the right budget. Also new or used can make significant differences on recommendations.
Used would be to buy a high option model with the performance you desire. Also make sure of warranty like a CPO. Year will make a difference on budget as well.
New would be to look at and drive various models and see if ride with standard suspension is good or do you want the air and other prices.
Interior - base or full leather and other nice things. What stereo can add a lot to the cost.
Performance. Can be good to extreme so again how much do you want to spend
If new I I would look at some of the 14 leftovers and make some offers , especially if you are looking turbo. There are still several great cars gathering dust

I would say the backup camera system and the lane change warning system are two "must haves" in light of the size of the car and its rather large blind spots.

Beside what has been said above (..should say below !) since recently, I'm also driving a CTT, that has "Lane Change Assist" and "Adaptive Cruise Control".
These are amazing options.
Imo, LCA should be like rear cameras : mandatory to all new vehicles.
And, about ACC, this is a "convenience". But, may be too much in the direction of "all automatic", with the dangers of having nothing else to do than ..aiming to the right direction !
Still, for those that are long range commuters, ACC can be a real good friend.
