Which car for my wife's commute.

My wife currently drives the Mazda Protege MP3. It has absolute world class handling (beat the 911 turbo in the slalom on one major mag's test), but she commutes from Phoenix to Tucson and it's noisy/harsh at 80mph for 1.5 hours each way.

She carpooled with her first officer last week and she like his Maxima. That got us talking about getting her another car. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The car MUST handle very well, be a 5 speed, quiet at 80mph, very reliable and cost under $15K. None of these points are negotiable.

I'm thinking BMW 3 series, Acura, Maxima... any other ideas?
