How about the Lexus nx200t AWD with F Sport package.

Car looks good. Drives okay. Enough power. Under 40k. Roomy.

I like the look of the thing and fuck knows it's less likely to be a shop queen.

Lexus literally took the GLA and made it worse in almost every way for their version of it, sadly.

I was genuinely surprised by the X3 M Sport handling. Yes it's taller than the X1 but it's surprisingly capable.

My problem with the X1 is it's already giving up handling compared to an M Sport E8x or E9x, but you can't comfortably fit adults in the back. I'm more comfortable in the back seat of my wife's Subaru Impreza than the X1.

To me, that handling tradeoff is only worth it if you get a real back seat and cargo space in return. The X3 has those things.
