I'd suggest that you consider the best sedan ever made - the BMW 325i (or a 328i). You can find a 2005-2006 model with 60K miles for under $16K. The fun factor is very high - 19 years on Car and Drivers Best 10 list! Heck, even Consumer Reports likes the car. The cars are reliable and easy to DIY the maintenance/repairs. The 325iX is all-wheel drive. Lots of tuner parts are available if you get the itch.

The 325i a great daily driver and has quite a bit of refinement over the others on your list. And the BMW will look nice next to the Porsche.
