I just bought a new 2008 Civic Si Sedan. Nice 350W sound system, 6-speed manual (quite a breeze to clutch/shift vs a 928), LSD, traction/stability control, comfortable Recaro seats. 197HP 16V 11.0:1 2-liter. Suspension feels to me like my friend's 190E 2.4-16 Cosworth.
Just over $19k and I didn't hit 'em hard. A 2009 can probably be negotiated to just below $20k. A used Si (2007+) can be had for $17k or less with modest mileage.
I know, it's a Civic...but it's a lot of car for under $20k.
I would not buy a Benz made in the past 10 years, almost everyone I've known who has had one (E55, SLK320) had significant issues for cars so young. I was looking at SL500s but glad I started buying 928s instead.
