This is the first time I can recommend the new Honda Prelude.

I didn't think that would happen... 🤣

The only people I have seen that said it’s not good are people that haven’t driven it
It’s a good car, just not a top of the line high performance car

I'll be honest, the idea of a "sports car" with a CVT is ridiculous

I mean its really a car that is economical first, and sporty enough when you need it to be.

Toyota Corolla ZR, maybe, if you like hatchbacks.

Honda Civic, based model with no options.

You might get a great used Yaris GR.

Was going to suggest i30N until I saw hybrid. 

Dunno whether you'd consider it sporty, but Honda Civic Hybrid?
