What car to get?

I've been researching new and used cars over the past 5 months and now it's time to make a decision. My original plan was to get a used lude or integra but that didn't work out so well as most of the cars I saw were either too expensive or in bad condition and would require work and money. I'm now only looking at new cars. My brother has owned two vics (00' and an 03') and I'm kinda of unsure if I want another vic in the family. I'm stuck between 3 cars:

1.) Honda Civic EX Coupe
2.) Mazda 3s Sedan
3.) Nissan Sentra SE-R

I've looked into all of them and they're all comprably priced. The key features of the 3 and se-r are the more powerful engines and better suspension. I like the styling of the 3 the best out of all the cars however. I did want a coupe but I would be able to deal with a sedan for the 3 or se-r. I don't plan on modifying the cars much if and modifying at all so stock performance and parts are important. I know how the Vic drives since I drove the 03' sicne we bought it, however I'm unsure of the se-r and 3 since I haven't been to the dealership yet. Reliability is also a big issue.

Any comments or help on the decision is greatly appreciated!

spoon will become famous soon enough
my brother owns a sentra ser spec v, and those things can fly. Gas mileage doesn't compare to the civic tho, i think he gets like 23 in the city. If you want more info on the ser check b15sentra.net.

If your into speed and performance, go for the SER, i like my civic better tho because i love the gas mileage, the simple styling, also i rather have honda than nissan.
