whats with all the ppl on an enthusiast forum talking about just getting a cheap daily and dont mod the car? what fun would that be? whatever you do buy, keep at least 2-3k for mod upgrades. i personally would get a turbo honda, but do what you like? if you get a wrx, be ready to swap some trannies!! oh and be ready to get walked by pretty much every fwd turbo honda from a roll.
