    Classical typically have 2″ nut width, this makes it easyer for the fretting hand (and the lower string tension and bigger string gauge friendlier to the fingertips) but if you use a pick you will have to make wider movements with your picking hand. If you mostly use a pick, an hybrid guitar can be a good choice. The Cordoba Fusion 5 and the Yamaha NTX1 Nylon are affordable choices, the nut width is 1 7/8″, wider than an acoustic but less than a classical. Note that nylon string have less volume output, if you play with people using steel string you may need to be amplified. As mentioned the Taylors are also good choices AD12e Nylon, 112, 114, 214 but at a higher price tag.
