VW Passat turbo. Very quick/fast and mpg is incredible. You can get a 2015 with leather etc with 12k miles for about 16k

I went from V6 Accord to '15 Passat TDI SEL. Great car with exception of some minor annoyances (touch screen is slow, no fully leather seats and couple of other things). Normally, you wouldn't be able to get it used for $16k. I looked at a late model used before actually buying it and used it was mid $20s. Ended up buying brand new because it didn't pay to buy used at the time. You won't find a diesel on any VW dealership lots. They can't sell them new until there is a "fix". I don't think you'll find one used on any lots either.
