How about a mazda 3?
2006 MAZDA 3- Manual
That sounds pretty promising. Slight exterior imperfections but the Mazda 3s are pretty solid.
heres another not bad.
2005 MAZDA 3 SEDAN......
2010 Mazda 3 2.0
2010 51k miles for 8500 obo ^^
the 2.0L would be perfect. "some" of the older ones have the 2.0 or the 2.3 or even the 2.5l obviously smaller is better in your case.
