Well, and it's hard to beat a Civic Si for fun driving, if that's your thing. (2009 here!)

Mine was an 03, hatchback model. Very fun to drive and the stick shift was on the dashboard basically.

I only wish I had spent more time driving it more interesting places, instead of to work in that wretched city.

Yeah, when I started looking at them, the sales guy at a dealership directed me to where I could find an on-ramp to bomb around. (After going very slowly to get there, past the usual speed traps.)

Since then, I've moved to an island on the west coast. Roads are where the terrain allows, and nothing is straight or on a grid. Perfect!

Ah, yes. I've never had one, but did get to go for a spin when my manager rented one to try out. My son's RX-7 is also a blast, or at least was when he had it running. <wink>
