I've only found one SVX with a five-speed, and it was on a Subaru enthusiast site where someone (girl IIRC?) did an auto->manual swap. They're not available with a stick stock. Nor do they have four doors.
I do love the style of the Audi A4, 99.5+ Jetta, Saab 9000 and Saab 9-5, but am concerned enough about the reliability of all of them to shy away from those.
The Infiniti G20 is an interesting idea. I really like it in terms of style .. rather conservative look. It's got some distinct Nissan-ish touches like the door handles, and I've heard many nightmares about Infiniti dealerships on CEG, but I'll give the car a look. For the price a Sentra SE-R might be more appropriate.
