I would greatly prefer RWD or AWD, but I would settle for FWD if I find something that is fun, and there are definitely options out there. I am going to go test drive a few things tomorrow, hopefully I can make some progress.

I like the idea of a WRX, however, I am concerned that alot of them were probably driven extremely hard. Also, all the ones in my price range are out of warranty, whereas many of the Mazda3s should still have a year or two left.

Something like this is interesting:
