it all depends upon how much you want to spend. Folks have already mentioned
BMW, and an Audi would be my first choice (surprise!), but if memory serves
me correctly, the first Volvo XC 70 all-wheel-drive wagons were introduced
into Canada with a manual transmission available as an option. This option
was not available down south in the USA. If you could find a used one it
wouldn't come cheap but I've driven the automatic version and its a pretty
nice car with plenty of room. The fun factor would be enhanced with a stick
for sure.
