Help me choose a new car

About 6 months ago my 99 Civic Si was totaled (by my mom, not me). Ive been slow to getting around to buying a new car, but Im finally getting going at it now. I have about 10k (well actually, thats how much my parents are willing) to spend on a car, and am having a hard time deciding which would be the best.

The ones Im looking at right now are as follows (in no particular order):

96+ Audi A4
99-00 Honda Civic Ex or Si
94-01 Acura Integra Ls or GSR
92+ Honda Prelude
97-98 Nissan 240sx

Consider looks, perfomance, reliability, tunability, and overall niceness all as factors. I am only 16, so keep in mind, I will be paying for gas, and insurance, so consider these factors as well. I would like to get something with under or around 60k miles, so consider that as well. Although I said consider performance as a factor, I will not be racing, so this is a small priority.

Out of those 5 listed, which would you guys recommend?

I'd go for the newer car if it has to last you a long time with minor maintenence.

The A4 is a pretty damned nice car. However I personally like the Prelude.. I think its more of a matter of my own distorted opinion. I like the 2 seats, because 3 is a crowd when driving to me. I prefer myself, the road, and my girl, anyone else can drive themselves. Ive also driven newer model Preludes, and I like the way they drive. They CAN be easily upgraded if you know the right people you can cut ALOT of cost. Thats just me though.
