Well I just speak from your perspective because I was there literally 3 months ago (I actually made a thread just like this one). I looked at the accent (which get HORRIBLE gas mileage for some reason), I didn't want all the problems that older cars bring like those old Hondas, I wanted something that also looked "decent".

Now if I had the money I would have gone with a Yaris, but thsoe are like $5k or 6k. So I ended up with the Focus zx3 and its been nothing but GREAT (a lot of aftermarket support as well so easy tuning for mpg). I would have also gotten a TDI but then again those are a little more.
