I would buy a Subaru legacy, the generation right before this one and swap the WRX STi motor into it.

Probably buy a cheap integra, and use the rest of the money to build it.

I'd buy a late70s/early80s volvo 200 series wagon, do the round headlight and flathood conversions, throw in an LS1 and a couple turbos and call it a day

:edit: or perhaps try my luck at a 2jz swap.
