I'd be inclined to get a 2nd-3rd Gen Prius (wouldn't have to pack an extension cord, 600 mile range) and MR2 Spyder (nearly a motorcycle), both run on regular, have modern safety and convenience features, are reasonable to insure and with $2 gas, used Prius prices have cratered.
Together, figure $20K +/- for a fun (with proper tires, Prius handles better than expected), reliable, economical all weather stable.
