Personally so far I like the Subaru WRX idea.
I suspect most people here were car guys prior to getting their drivers license or their first car. I don't think a sports car will change your DNA.

I would choose a safe reliable car for my kids over something that might make them enjoy driving. I had a variety of Volvo wagons and I made very few roadside service calls to bail them out.
