But I think you need to ask yourself - Do you want to put her into something newer because of the door incident? Or does she deserve a new car with newer features because that is what she wants?
For all we know, she could very well be happy in a base model Civic or Corolla (but I know that isn't in her criteria.)

Lol! The door incident thing was a one-off from 6 years ago. There hasn't been any mishaps since then. I just checked the Lexus CA website, and the CT200h is a total joke in terms of safety/luxury options. None of the 3 safety features I wanted are available on the Canadian model.
My fan's in Vancouver, and will be here probably forever. Yes, I had a 3dr S3 here briefly, but we needed a 4 dr. If the 5dr A3 is available in Canada, I'll be there with a deposit when I'm back on vacay end of month.
Last I check the Civic and Corolla's aren't available in hatchback form in Canada. The Scion really killed what would have been a decent looking car. I love Mazda, but something about the seat ergonomics on cars below the 6 is a bit off. VW really knows how to make a good seat, even on a barebones Golf which I had before the Tiguan.
Edit : Argh, Mazda 3 doesn't have radar cruise either - even with GT-Tech
