Need some new car ideas.

[RuhRohh]

So WFC, I sold my WRX last week in pursuit of getting back into an FXT. So far that is not working out so I've also decided to explore other cars outside of Subaru, unless I find an FXT in 5MT that I can afford.

Here's my criteria:
Less than $10k
Mechanically Reliable
MUST be Manual
4 doors is very preferable
Trying to stay away from Euro
Would like something NOT FWD
Can't be too old.
Want something that will look good SLAMMED

Help me think of some car ideas

My sister has one and they're interesting cars but the early 00's (hers is 02) Mazda Millenia.

Could look nice on a vip style but not sure one aftermarket support. Something different

Miata. Under 10k. Cheap to slam. RWD. Fun.

I agree with the IS300. Or how about a G35?
