Default Back and looking for a new scoob

Hi all,

I have been 5 months without my beautiful WRX bug and realized i made a mistake selling it but ultimately needed more space than i had.
Looking for an Impreza Wagon (turbo of course)

I've got a few k to spend between 4-7 so not sure what to get, clearly spend all you can to get the best.

My old WRX was about 270ish bhp so will need equal or more power.
I have spent some time looking at legacy twin turbos and twin scroll turbo as i am keeping my options open but do keep finding myself looking at Impreza's after seeing a Legacy.

So my questions....... My old one was a 2.0 turbo bugeye...
not a fan of the bugeye wagon, just looks odd.

So Nice Impreza classic, or a newage blob for that price but the mrs isnt a massive fan of the blob lights.
I have seen a few 07 reg hawks up for 7k ish, but i am unfamiliar with the 2.5L engine, is it a lot different to the 2.0? How so? Any worse or better with reliability.
This will be a daily driver only a 20 mile round trip but will be going to wales and back once a month too. Is the classic a lot more of a firm ride than the newage.
Only has experience with a Legacy GTB and my WRX bug.

Thanks
