If they can hold on, I'd be looking at the new Fusion, or the Pontiac G8 as a possible 2nd vehicle. If not, I'll be looking at Volvo S40 or S60's in a T5 AWD variant, or heck, maybe the R (yeah right, talking $30K used...lol). Or, I'd perhaps try and support the smaller companies like Mitsubishi...they are releasing a Lancer Ralliart that has the EVO's driveline (de-tuned mind you), but has a fully optioned out interior with power windows, locks, mirrors, stereo, leathers, etc etc...which I think is going to be a VERY hot seller for people wanting EVO-Esq performance, but without a completely frugal interior.
