For ease of maintenance and durability. The Celica would be a good choice.

Another option could be Toyota MR2, now you can import the Spyder from US (I have a friend sold his SC MR2 for the Sypder, he mentioned about something about putting "Lotus" ECU there). They are basically a 2-seater with a Corolla engine.. but lots of modding potential there.
