My first preference would be the Liberty B4,I own a Liberty wagon I use on quiet country runs & Family outings & driven Bruv's Suby WRX as a Track car,I believe AWD turbod transport is the go,The drive feel is so amazing AWD conversion is absolutely possible (not me but i love my rolla )
The Teg ive driven & taken to Hell & back BUT doesnt make me wanna come back for more, the feel & sound of Vtec are amazing,only a Honda VTEC can create such beautiful tunes,Power wise in a NA ,I feel this is close as youde get to a S2000 (but in FF :( ) a real power house NA..THis would a very close second
S15's dime a dozen<everywhere just like its cuzzins the 13 & 14,but accessorywise & potential for Modding is limitless & there are some beautiful examples out there & bloody quick too ,But after all the work youde prolly do to it, youde be outdone by another S15 <_< even worse a holden commonwhore
Tha Alpha is prolly the most sexiest of your choices,Theres nothings better than driving a well made prestegious European car(my collegues would agree driving beemers & puegs),The sound & feel of its well made handmade like engines ,the feel of its precision race like suspension,the international airport lounge like interior 'Its an alpha' simple but alot of Euro cars are plagued by lack of service providers & Hard spare Parts & in the ned it all comes out ur pockets from a gradual trickle to a downpouring...
Good luck on your new buy, sorry ur not staying with the Toyotas,try lexus or importing the Verossa (maybe)
