Replacing the V wagon is a tough one. The closest thing to the performance, body style/size and having a manual transmission is probably the upcoming Focus RS. The E63 S is still available but only for $120k and with no option for a manual. For sedans there are more choices at least, but still not very many that offer a manual. There's the ATS-V and the Chevy SS, or the BMW M3/M4 or M5. For whatever reason the Challenger hellcat offers a manual but the Charger hellcat doesn't. I still think they probably need to make a Magnum hellcat, and make it handle well. And give it a manual.
