A car is a car. Just trying to be practical. Just need something that gets me from point a to b in a safe and reasonable fashion.

I know of an IS300 sedan (5-speed, omg right?) for sale in Marin. I think it said ~140k miles, and ~$7k. Looked clean. That could solve your practical + FWD dilemma with Toyota quality + RWD 5-spd.

Don't get me wrong... they are reliable cars at newest for the newer cars... but can't say the same about the community.

Or the MR2 I used to have. Talk about a P.O.S.
