I have thrown the newer Elantras, Sonatas, CCs, Malibus, and Fusions into the mix as well.

4 door with leather, descent looking, under 100k miles and under 12k in white or black is actually harder to find than I thought lol

We owned a 2011 Elantra ( not Limited :P ) for awhile and they're pretty decent cars. Wife liked it a lot and put probably 20-30k miles on it with 0 issues.

My problem is finding them with leather interior. I would have so many (cheaper) options without the leather. He is a white Jack Russel and his little hairs gets stuck in all the fabric. What to do what to do.

You need a state wide craigslist search engine, screw searching city by city.

It's for the wife though. But really, unless you've driven one, you won't know, just sayin'. great MPG, easy to maintain, super fun to drive, reliable, all around solid vehicle. I was the same way until I got in one.

Just get an outback or legacy wagon. Tons of cabin room, "decent gas mileage", the automatic transmissions are extremely well-built. The only thing is recommended maintenance, which is with every vehicle.
