They are surprisingly expensive. I just ran a quick configuration on a Sportage with the turbo motor, AWD and a host of options and it came in at nearly $40k. That's insane.
OT: Compact SUV recommendations?

After it's all said and done - it was down to the Mazda CX5 and the Hyundai Santa Fe Sport / Grand Touring.
The Hyundai was a little bigger than I wanted but overall I liked it, liked the engine, interior features. The problem: price. I can't just pick leather seats and moon roof without adding thousands and thousands of dollars of premium package stuff that i did not want. Brought up the MSRP another $3500. Nuts.
The Mazda CX5 has nearly everything I want, and I don't have to pay for a bunch of crap features I don't. This is the car I'll be getting tomorrow, after a final test drive.
Only question remaining: lease of finance?
and: silver or red?

Only young chicks buy red cars. Is this for your daughter ?
Not sure precisely what OP is looking for but my wife's Sorento was about 25k, came with a 2.4L engine. Not sure if it's "compact" or midsize but she's been driving it for 2 years and loves it
Fwiw, Mazda has been dressing its entire lineup in red for major auto shows for the past couple years. Looks great.
