If you spend 15k on a 3 year old civic, sentra, or corolla I feel bad for you. You could buy a ncie 95 bmw m3 for 15k. Not that it's what you'relooking for but just saying. Acura Integra GSR would be a good deal for what you're looking for. Nice, reliable, prolly has leather, pretty fast. I also wouldn't personally buy one from a dealership but that's jsut me. You're gonna spend an extra 4k just so you can have a warranty. It's a jap car,if it has less than 100k miles it's gonna run for a long time more and prolly won't break. parts are cheap anyways and I ebt you could find someone you know to do the ork for you for cheap. You could even do it yourself if necessary.
