For 6k 1994-2001 Acura Integra. 35+mpg, dead realiable for zillions of miles, relatively sporty, and they age well. I don't have one, but they are well known as supremely good used cars.

Most guys at the race track have at least a 1/2 ton truck or a tahoe/suburban. All the guys who are towing happily have at least 3/4 ton.
