Came here to post this too. 2011 two-door Hyundai accent, and I really value how small it is with two doors rather than four, easy to maneuver and park and drive in general.

It's had some issues (horrible repair job after an accident led to me driving it a while with badly leaking transmission fluid, I really think that's contributed to 90% of the problems over the years) and a few months back I tried looking into new cars and I literally could not figure out if anyone sells a car that size in the US anymore. So I'll stick with dealing with it breaking down once or twice a year.

Breaking down can be a huge headache depending on timing, but I'm not interested in buying used because I don't feel like I have enough intuition for cars to test drive something for an hour and feel confident I'm not putting $10,000 or whatever into a lateral move.
