I would vote '05+ STI if you can afford it and drive it mostly stock for a year before making many mods.

a 2.5l WRX might be a good option for less $s, but if you plan to track it at all brake and transmission upgrades will quickly eat the $ delta to an STI.

If you are budgeting for Mods, keep a short block with Forged internals on the list because the stock internals will break eventually and not planning for it will be a big budget shock/breaker.
