The Lancair IVP is a possible solution as pointed out be several
people.but
it really has no weather capability. No radar, known ice, no lightning
hardening. It is fast, fairly simple and cheap to operate. It also has
no
room inside.

Disagree with the room comment. A L-IV has a bigger cabin than most
GA 4 place singles. However, this is much smaller than any twin
cabin, and certainly the turboprop cabins.

My hanger neighbor is building a beautiful (OSH Grand Champion level)
turbine IVP. All I can say is that the cabin looks smaller than a 182 to
me!

Cabin size comparisons:
L-IV: 46 inches in front, 43 in rear, 48 tall
C172: 39.5", 39.5", 48"
C182: 42", 42", 48.5"
