How about a calibra 4 x 4 turbo? Pretty reliable if looked after and not astronomical mileage. The v6 is possibly a safer bet as the 4 x 4 needs more careful attention. Fairly practical too.
Nissan 300 zx is another possiblity but they are getting on a bit.

I used to own a 1992 MR2 Turbo. Fantastic car. 0-60 5.5 secs. The foglights used to turn with the steering wheel.
Only available as jap import though. Insurance was limited to small number of companies.
Very very complicated in the engine bay. Although nothing went wrong until gf wrapped it round a tree.
Electro hydraulic power steering, extras list a mile long.
A bit tail happy with 220 BHP through the back wheels. Apparently the 1994 on models had revised suspension to make them less tail happy.
