...i don't know if you have ever even seen the R2 interior...but it is much better looking and quality than the RSX, my GTI has better looking interior than the RSX and mine is the standard version with leather......
the 350Z, yea its a great car, but honestly if a chick gets a car from the parents then it usually means she is not the best of drivers, a RWD car with that much performance at hand might not be the best thing....not only that but nissan paint loves to chip alot so unless you are going to bring it from the dealership to the painting shop and get a few more layers of clear coat just to protect it, i wouldn't bother....
RX-8 same deal, its RWD, i wouldn't bother with someone that doesn't have much RWD driving experience.....
STI/EVO as mentioned by you your self, unless she drag races then stop bothering with all these super high end cars.
the Audi TT has a few versions, the roadster with the 1.8T 180 HP with FWD only, the 1.8T with 225 AWD, 3.2L AWD with DSG tranny only and the convertables of all those versions....i would get the 225HP AWD version if i had a coice...
Mazda speed miata, well thats along with the rest of the RWD vehicles so i don't think i have to mention that part again.....
all in all this post was about 2 cars the R32 and the RSX and i say the R32 for its a better chick car, better saftey, and AWD for better traction (all points for the basics of getting this car, not on personal opinions of the car for those would go on for pages)

you're all dumb hell bent on factory performance. Rating a car on factory performance is like rating a tire on parking lot driving. Unless she is drag racing professionally jesus stop talking about these couple cars and look at the market, First off...
The R32 is fast.. but is otherwise as appealing as a used douche rag. The RSX at least has a gorgeous interior and the Honda/Acura reliability.
Then again RSX's are the new integra and will be everywhere. Your girlfriend obviously has some cash on hand.. so consider the following.
1. 350Z - More horse than either of the above.. and FAR nicer inside and out. I'd kill for a Z style interior.
2. Finance an RX8 - they are a bit above the tag but s***.. you get the rotary beast.. a rare car.. and you also get IMHO the best interior setup available.
3. WRX STi - 31k tag.. give or take depending on a dealer 2k. Better than the Evo... better interior than an Evo... and less common than Evo's. the 04' STi is sexy as hell.
4. Audi TT 180 Coupe - rare, very sexy car... any girl should love these.
5. Mazdaspeed miata - perfect for a girl.. and at 5'1 she'll fit the car well.
