Money is no object.

Any compact car from history

BMW 3 Series, 190E/C-class, Audi A4 all count for this (for simplicity's sake). As do sports compacts like the Integra and Celica

Mine would be the pictured Type R or E30 M3

Clio V6, assuming I could get some nice tyres and do some suspension work to make it slightly less terrifying. Or an Ariel Atom, those are pretty compact.

If an A4 or a C-class count a compacts, this does too, right? Right? Right!!!!!

That Cavalier Z24 hatchback from earlier. My mother used to have one and said it was one of her favorites. I like the looks a lot.

Does the Skoda Rapid not come awesome like that?

Okay compact. I'd have to go for a VW Scirocco R line in matte grey.

I know it wasn't anything more than a concept, but if money were no object, I'd pay Audi to hand build me one of these.

Always kind of wanted a Corvair. Preferably a second gen Monza coupe.

As much as I want to like the Giuletta, the styling doesn't really grow on me. Especially in person they just look a bit odd, more so if you compare them to the cars before them.

No RS version! The Rapid was introduced as some kind of bargain basement low shelf car, a performance version wouldn't fit in with that.

I can't make up my mind in between these two but it would be a honda for sure.

Honda Integra DC2 Type R

or a Honda Integra DC5 Type R

Also where you aware that there was a thing as a 4 door Honda Integra DB8 Type R?

I just learnt about this last week.

1964 Mercury Comet 404 wagon, in this exact color combination. With the 289 V8 & 4-speed on the floor. It was their compact car in '64, so it counts. :)

yes factory made 4 door Type R Integra. There is currently one for sale in BC Canada for 10K

If I had 10K I'd be all over this.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

More realistically though, I'm more interested in features , not a specific car.

extremely high fuel efficiency (diesel? hybrid-diesel? 6-speed dual-clutch automatic?)

hatchback/shooting brake for cargo (no flipping sedans)

reasonable ground clearance (urban potholes - so no Golf GTIs or skinny rubber tires)

four wheels (because go away Elio)

The XL-1 is a concession on #2 and #3 because of the ridiculously excellent fuel economy.

190e 2.5-16 Evo2

A45 AMG

205 C63

Defender 90. It fits because it has a smaller wheelbase than a Mini Countryman.

Maybe an E30 M3, just for shits and giggles.

And an 80's-tastic Z26 Beretta RWD converted with an LS7 and T56 combo. And the world's quietest exhaust. For the lol's.
