2016 and newer Civics are much better than previous-generation models.
Agreed. Civics have been blah before that. Nobody loves them.
Is a manual absoluley necessary? Coupe or 4 door?
In the $10K range Id look at a infinity G37. 325 HP. 2 or 4 door. If you are a honda guy, look at an acura TSX (only 200 HP like a Si and 4 door) Both They had a manual option.
Both much, much nicer than a civic. But you are looking at something closer to 9 years old, maybe 100K.
OK, Just a quick search of carmax I near me found a several super clean G37s (2010s) and a TSX w/6 SP (2012) for $12K.

Other coupes spring to mind -- min cooper S, turbo Beetle, 328i, hudnai genesis coupe. Lots more options depending on your actual wants.
