have you totally dismissed the europaS might need to stretch the budget a bit but they're more cpacious than an elise (more so than you might expect IMO).

How about a 996? Running costs will be significantly more than your Impreza but you get a lot of car for the money and they're more practical than an Elise.

You'll think it's great, until after about a week, the novelty wears off, and you'll just wish you had bought the manual.

I'm still very happy with mine after nearly a year... much better than the clunky e46 manual box.

With exactly the same budget I bought an e46 M3.
