Car Shopping: Candidate #1 - Update II

I’m likely buying this thing. It’s fine. No AC (whatever, I have 2 others with it) no keyless entry (it unlocks like my D100!), no auto headlights. But it is a nice car, comfortable with an awesome price and warranty.

Off to look at a 2018 Kia Forte LX. 6MT, $12K CDN ($9146USD) and 27km (16 miles). Brand new. A little out of my $10.5K CDN budget, but I think worth it? Input?

Low price, but I guess nobody is buying base model manual 4 door sedans anymore.

Remember, this is just a piece of equipment for work. Not a fun car or something that I will feel anything but slight contempt for.
