There's always the Geo/Chevy Prism - a Toyota Corolla in disguse - you can
get a stick, and for at least some years they made a GSI version that had at
least more HP - not sure on the suspension.
>From having rental cars, the Olds Alero was actually pretty dang good,
especially with the big v6 (3.4 maybe?) - traction control could be turned
off, and I think it also had a manual shift lock. For the 4 cylinders I
think you could even get a stick.
Doesn't the Chevy Cavalier have a sport package - at least in the 2 door
they do - that seems to be a good car for STS, too.
Hope this helps :-)
