i know it's a bit of a stretch because the base model starts around $22k, but what about the new honda hr-v? i don't know how long you have to save up but by then maybe there will be some used ones or early lease returns on the market... http://vancouver.craigslist.ca/nvn/ctd/5193985006.html

BRAND NEW 2016 HONDA HR-V OFFER is here... | I would wait on the Honda HRV unless you don't mind the current motor that's in it right now.

My dad's had a 2007 Rogue since new, bought it in the US to save money. He's only now considering getting something newer, but he's really enjoyed it. He's put a ton of miles on it and so far nothing major has gone wrong. Literally just regular maintenance items.
Also gets it serviced at Morrey Nissan since new. Would be a good idea to find one that has records, of course.

Thank you all for the suggestions. I'll try the CX-5 for sure. Probably the others too, seems like they're all good after all, only a matter of preference. Now I need to drive them anyway.
