Cars that offer the most fun for your hard-earned cash? Here is a list of cars under $30k that are the most fun to drive.

When you think of a car that will offer the most fun for you personally may vary, but for most people out there, it will probably be something really unreachable, like a top-of-the-line Lamborghini or exotic Koenigsegg of sorts.

But, especially in today's economy, there are so many options out there for cars that will put a smile on your face from ear to ear, and won't necessarily break the bank.

The presenters of the YouTube channel Throttle House, set out a task for themselves to compile a list of cars that are $30k or less, that are seriously fun to drive and give you a really enjoyable driving experience. And, note in the list below, that the choices are not necessarily the top version of that specific car.

Their list goes as follows:

10: Honda Civic SI

9: Subaru WRX

8: Jeep Wrangler two-door

7: Fiat 500 Abarth

6: Volkswagen Golf GTI/Jetta GLI

5: Chevrolet Camaro 1LT 1LE (Manual)

4: Subaru BRZ / Toyota 86

3: Nissan 370Z

2: Hyundai I30N

1: Mazda MX-5 Miata

All these cars come in under $30,000 USD and deliver maximum smiles per mile! Take a look at the Throttle House video below to find out why they chose these specific cars for their top 10 cars under $30k.
