Elise/Exige/VX220 or Impreza/Evo? Maybe a Scirocco?

The Elise is great fun to drive and you can really throw it around corners and stuff. Ride is pretty stiff tho'; Your ass will not like you if you drive it over very bumpy roads :lol:

Only been a passenger in an Impreza (And a diesel one at that!) but the acceleration feels even more ridiculous than the Elise (I think it accelerates slower, but you feel it more because of the 4WD) and it has the same trying-to-push-your-face-off feel of the Elise in cornering :D
Is a lot more comfy than the Elise too, but pricey.

The Scirocco is okay too; Not a planted as the other two and it's basically a Golf in a nicer body.

I have a feeling the traction isn't that great.

I second that Subaru Impreza (was WRX was the civilian model?). Had a friend own one some time ago, said something like "They shouldn't be allowed to sell these cars"... In this case meaning that it is an awfully easy way to get rid of your driver's license for going way too fast with that rocket on wheels. The acceleration is ridiculous, even on icy roads. I have been driving with Subarus for about 10 years, and I think they really are fun to drive. Some people don't like how the steering transmits the feeling of the road to your hands, but I personally like it. Hill holder is something that I continuously miss in other cars.

So either that or this one. I would like to know what kind of black magic they have done to that old Lada on that to make it go like that. Perhaps an engine change and a turbo? Anyways, it is probably the cheapest car you can buy and upkeep; and guaranteed, it will definetely earn looks. Not necessarily positive though, but it only serves to impress more when you pull something like that with it. That is if you are interested in cars and tuning. Owning a car like this requires somewhat humoristic and in-your-face kind of attitude. "It's not a car, it's a Lada"
