An STi 
Just not a Mitsu, ever again, unless it is used and well over 30k, and I'm prepared to deal with the... consequences. Then maybe I'd pick up a IX for a track car... maybe.
X is a great car for sure, but I won't buy one that is within "warranty" range, Mitsu screwed me over, and I'm never giving that up.

Will be a year in May and I think it's by far the best vehicle I've had. This thing handles like a dream! and looks mean as hell! We've laughed, we've cried. But no regrets.

I've had my GSR since 02/01/09, and like all cars it's got it's faults, but I'm still loving it....much better than my modded out 2007 WRX.
Compaired to my old Subaru, my Evo X handles better (even with it's just about stock suspension), way less rattles & road noise (thanks to the full frame windows), and with the Stage 1 Perrin tune my X feels quicker/faster than my old Stage 2 WRX.
All and all I need an AWD vehicle up here in Mass, and since I have always perferred driving a "sporty" vehicle, my only choices really were the STI or the Evo X. I test drove both cars, and both cars were awesome, but IMO Subaru really screwed the pooch with the redesign of the 2008 STI...I just don't like hatchbacks...period.
In the end the Evo's new body style, the fact that it's slightly quicker around the track than the STI, and the 0% financing swayed me to buy the Evo.
