If you want new for around $18k get a Spec. They are fun cars, run a 14.9 stock, look good and are not all over the place like Civics. If used get Mustang GT, you can get a fully decked out used 03 with about 10k miles for around $16-18k.
true that. i drove a friends spec-v, completely stock for a week and a half, and it is a very fun, stock car. there's always power, in every gear. it's hard to believe it's not a v6 sometimes.

Anyway, I want a car that is respectable, meaning a car that I will be proud of for around $18000
A GTP is the way to go. Good on gas. A fast growing aftermarket, and with a few bolt ons you can hit 13's- 12's with ease and look good doing it.I'm sorry but a NEON will not save you in a crash.A larger car might.Think about that.
If I could do it again I would have bought one myself.

18k.. Get an auto pontiac trans am 99 or 98 and do the following

99TA - 12-13k
exhaust, headers, intake, airlid, cam, pushrods, rockers, springs, adj drag shocks and springs, nittos or bfg's, tuning, 3.73 gears.

Should get you around 18-19k deep in the11's.

Then start saving for a 12 bolt rear end real fast!!

Then.. spray it
