None of the cars on your list are luxurious, or fast.

You want luxurious and fast, get a Mercedes E500.

Anyway, among the choices on your list:

I can't stand VWs for numerous reasons I don't feel like going in to.

GSR - good, but kind of annoying to find in all of the used car listings and dunno if you'll find a '99+ for under 10 grand

Swapped hatch - you have to buy the hatch, then you have to buy the motor, then you have to do the swap; "plans" such as these have a way of never getting accomplished

Accord VTEC - pretty much every Accord from '99 up is VTEC; do you mean I4 or V6?

'02 Si - doubt if you'll find one under $10k, they're ugly, but they do drive pretty nice

I'd go looking for GSRs or try to find a Prelude VTEC which is also a pretty nice car and you should be able to find one for a pretty good price.

Is this $10k your total budget you have to pay for other things like insurance, registration, gas, repairs, etc? If that's the case you don't want to spend any more than say, $7500 on the car itself.
