Used to be an 06 Nissan Sentra special edition, then moved to the cold mountain area now I have an 05 Subaru Impreza RS, of course a Subaru I live in Colorado haha. Fantastic car it's a sport package and has WRX suspension, seats etc. Doesn't have the turbo though. Its got 91k miles on it, but was well taken car of and I obsess over the oil changes and regular maintenance, gotta change the timing belt soon but I'm hoping to get close to 400k so do what you gotta do.
I'm currently looking at a Subaru Justy or Brat as well, for better gas mileage... Big time Subaru fan here
