I see you live in Colorado. A WRX may be a fun consideration, especially because it can be used well into the wintertime...

A friend bought a WRX that is a generation or two old for $6000 and threw about $2K in mods into it. It is ridiculously fun to drive in the snow (with good snow tires).

They are quick in a straight line but stock suspension for dry surface handling is kinda piggish. Dirt roads are ridiculous in it though, and it felt like a car that I could drive every day.

Be warned that the enthusiast community for Subarus, at least around here, is made up of a high percentage of people-that-really-get-annoying kinds. Which is why I would be looking for a 944 Turbo- just to keep it in the family.
