Looking at getting a new car

Been thinking about getting the Saturn Astra for awhile, and now that is starting to become more a of reality, so I started to look at a couple of other cars in the same class. Heres what I got:

All cars are 5sp Manual, have yet to drive any of them

2008 Saturn Astra XR 3dr - $19,850 - Pros: 28/32mpg, GM, fresh new look for the US, tried and true in Europe, good stereo and heated seats, sporty suspension; Cons: weak sounding 138hp 1.8l Eco-tech

2009 Mitsu Lancer GTS 4dr - $20,665 - Pros: Sportiest at 170hp and tuned suspension, kick butt 650watt stereo, good looking; Cons: highest price, 21/28mpg, import, ricer boy image

2009 Subie Impreza 2.5i 5dr - $19,640 - Pros: Most space and cargo, subie all wheel drive, lowest price; Cons: 20/27mpg, looks aren't that great, import, weak stereo

Just fishing for thoughts here and suggestions, I here great things about the HHR but it has no apeal to me at all, I'm 23 so things like stereos and looks matter, but they don't beat out praticality.

Thanks for staying with me this long, all comments and suggestions will be greatly appreciated
