As much as the STi may seem to lack in the interior dept. The performance tends to make you forget about that, especially when you turn it on and have a subiflow system... but I'd go for a 350/370z personally due to the exclusivity factor and they look dope

 

True! Love the way the 2016 370z Nismo look. But too bad that i needed the back seats for kids. Sigh.

 

Funny you mention that because that's exactly what I did. Found an 99% stock 06 Spice Red 6mt Goat late last year that at the time had 27.1K original miles. 2 previous owners both in their 50's used it only as a weekend car and it's been garaged it's whole life. I also paid $17K for it and was happy to shell out the cash. It still smells new inside and is flawless. I've been so surprised at how awesome a daily it is I'm sadly selling my baby G. Fit and finish is impressive as mentioned above and I like the fact it's pretty rare. My new girl is 1 of only 101 SRM, 17" wheel, 6mt, black leather interior Goats sold in 06 and still has well under 37K miles on her today.

Yes gas mileage sucks but I couldn't give a fvck. Insurance is no more expensive than the G's and it has the most supportive and comfortable front seats of any car I have owned in the 40 years I've been driving. It's a much better DD and road trip car than the G was when it was bone stock plus when you drop the hammer it makes me grin like a school child. Def wouldn't be a good choice for you OP, the back seat is barely there but would probably hold a few tamales, burritos would just be too big lol.
