Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Overpriced maybe but not garbage by a long shot. Love mine. Don't believe the prevailing internet opinions of non owners.
  • Throwing the Elantra N into this mix. :)
  • Get a GR86/Miata if you don’t need 4 doors, get a type r, or get an Elantra N if you don’t have Type R money.
  • Elantra N clears many of the cars listed
  • what’s cheap and reliable lol Miata. First Gen Twins. GTI. Elantra N.

Cons

  • Si is a step back in performance, and Elantra N or GR Corolla are arguably about the same for reliability, but with nastier interiors.
  • Elantra N (FWD)
  • not as track focused as the Elantra N

Elantra N. I know people will say ‘not premium’ but if your point of comparison is Mazda, it’s basically equivalent in my opinion. The DCT is very nice, and it’s more sporty to drive than most of the other cars mentioned.

I’d recommend going with a civic si or Elantra N if buying new.
