A used GTI might work if you have to get something, or maybe a used VW R. I like those two except for the 60/40 weight distribution. I had a WRX and I think it drives like a cheap car. The VW Golf line is more refined, but it is not a BMW.

Since BMW does not presently make a hatchback or wagon with stick shift, I probably would consider a VW R if I had to make a change.
