2.5rs coupe or a wrx sure. They can be had cheap and all wheel drive. Depends on your budget and already learned driving skill and the level you want to achieve. Depends if you want an car that's easy to go around comes or one that will do the job but requires some work. All your personal preference.

I thought of doing a Subbie but the cost if you have any breakage could get out of hand quickly. I have a friend that is into them, he just races the **** out of it, then when the warranty is up he just takes off his upgrades and trades it in for a new one not a bad way to get in cheap but I HATE car payments

+1 for Miata. You can get early 90's Miatas for cheap, at least around here. Best of all, no rust repair.

Ok I'm liking this idea more and more, and wow cheap is an understatement!! I was looking on CL and there's one not far from me for $1800 and it runs and drives. Good tires are CHEAP in that size for sure and the aftermarket support is really nice if you want to step up your game with one of these.
