I'm thinking either FJ Cruiser or STI.  I know.  Two complete opposite ends of the spectrum, but that's what I'm thinking for myself at the moment.
 Sad

What are your pros and cons for both?  Are you leaning towards one over the other?

Pros -

They're both either awd or 4x4

STI 305 HP runs on 93 octane
FJ 260 HP runs on 87 octane
Both are reliable enough to last me 10 years.
-in my opinion they're both fun in their own way.  I've driven both of them.
- they both have good stopping power which blows in my Honda.  It's been horrible since day 1.
- both have good solid suspensions.
- Both come in manual transmissions.

Cons -

STI - Not as spacious as I would like it to be.  Interior trunk space and space behind front seats (wagon).

FJ - bad gas mileage especially now when the cost of gas is sky high.

FJ - spacious but access to back seat is annoying.

- both are in the $32k - $34k range.

Side note: jer in the time that it's taken me to wreck the same car twice, you still haven't found your unicorn.  I thought that was funny.

Nope, that still makes it ugly.  You just have a little more hp and reduce the fuel economy.  Who needs a SC in NYC anyway?

Nissan Patrols aren't available here. 

Thanks Z, that is definitely a plus.

^ All are nice but.. Get em in MT. Which is better? I'd say the G35 or TL-S, but everyone has different taste.
