For a bit more stealth you could go with a 5-cyl acura vigor. It looks normal, but quite zippy. You may have a problem finding a manual. Or a ~2000 saab 9-3 with manual transmission would get you around quite nicely. mid 90's BMW 325's are inexpensive now. Stay newer than 1995 though. Food for thought. Good luck.

Unfortunately they don't make it anymore, so you would have to get a 2nd hand. I'd also look at - a 2003-05 jetta or passat (the new ones are lame), - a Toyota Corolla (I'm not a big fan of Yaris, because a bicycle doesn't fit, and it doesn't have a lot of acceleration, which sucks for highway) Hope this helps....
