Should i get a scion tc?

[halofan152]

so i've really been thinking about a car that i want to get. I'm going to sell my truck and get something more practical for my drive to school every day which is a half hour.
I've been thinking about a lot of cars
what I've been looking for are sporty, cheap, good performance numbers, and preferably a manual.
i've looked at the
Mitsubishi eclipse
Hyundai Tiburon
Honda civic
Mazda 6
scion TC
Volkswagen Jetta
ford focus and fusion
and the dodge neon srt-4

i like all of those cars, its just i can't find one that has everything i want that meets my price and still has low enough miles on it.
i have seen a lot of scions that i could do, but i've heard that they are pretty slow and some people think they're a girl car. what do you think?
i forgot to say i've looked at the mazdaspeed3 too. if i could pick any car out of the ones i listed i would pick the speed3 hands down, but there aren't any cheaper used ones and the dealer wouldn't lower the price enough on a new one.

out of all the cars you listed i'd go with the hyundai tiburon V6 6-speed. but if you really want to go with a fast sporty car go with a Camaro Z28, Camaro SS, Firebird Formula, or Trans-Am or an older Firebird/Camaro with a V8. those cars are really nice and fast. if gas is an issue for you, then get a camaro/firebird with the V6. a camaro/firebird V6 is faster than any of the cars you listed. for me i am a huge muscle car fan, i only like a few imports.
