2018 Nissan Sentra Sedan SR TURBO 4dr Sedan (1.6L 4cyl Turbo CVT)
Cures most of the ills of the non-turbo Sentra
 About 8 years ago I leased a 2010 Sentra at the request of my wife, who was in love with the basketball color leather seats.  It was the lamest car I ever owned (slow, no style, low tech even for then).  Forward to 2018, when it came time to turn in my leased 2016 Jetta Sport for a new compact car.  We tested the usual suspects: 2018 Honda Civic Turbo, 2018 Mazda3, 2019 Jetta.  The Civic was by far the best car, but Honda dealers believe that their cars are made of gold, with diamond accents (first quote for basic turbo sedan, no money down, was $580.00 per month!) so the Honda was eliminated.  The Mazda3 was a nice car (I had previously leased THIRTEEN Mazdas over 20 years, so I'm a fan) but didn't really feel impressed.  The 2019 Jetta was nicely done, but the weak engine was a turn off.  Finally, we went to our local Nissan dealer where we leased a 2017 Maxima (great car) at a fantastic price.  My wife again suggested a Sentra, except this time the SR Turbo. A winner!  Fast, comfortable, good looking, handles well, fully loaded (premium package with CVT) and much less expensive than all the others.
