I've seen the new Accord Sport and it is the first Accord I've seen in decades that has any appeal whatsoever. That being said, it is an Accord and ultimately would probably bore you to tears.
In the same horsepower range but with supposedly a better driving experience is the 2014 Mazda 6. You can get 6-speed Sport models in the $19K range and 6-spd Touring models in the $22K range. Would not have the resale of the Accord but not much does anyway. And there's supposed to be a diesel 6 coming soon. Or you could drop down one size to the Mazda 3.
And, yes, the new Regals are something to consider. Not sure I like the front view of the GS compared to the regular model but you have to go used for low-$20K as new will set you back between $30-$40K. Surprisingly, resale on these is not as poor as Buicks of the past. Still dislike that waterfall grill and three-shield logo. Of course, you could always swap out for a Vauxhall, Holden, or Opel grill...
Have you looked at a near-new Volvo S60? No manuals, but plenty of power.
