im not into luxury cars ive driven them all just not into them i like the ones that rattle the skin off your bones lmao. but yea at one point i considered getting a STi as a daily driver/car for long drives but ended up not getting anything yet cause how money is right now.
if i had to buy a luxury car id have to be a BMW get me a 1997 535i 5-speed ftw

MIG. ER70S-2 If you have a backing gas, need to use a flux core wire if not. You want to use a technique called stitch welding. Instead of holding down the trigger you want to blip it. blip blip blip blip blip, use a small, short, weld pattern, It would be to you benefit to use a backing gas, Argon, or a mix. It will make the cleaning of the weld much easier. As for Voltage and wire speed, That really depends on the welding machine. Most small machines arent regulated well, So it will be a learning curve on your part. Typically for a stitch weld you want more relative heat compared to the wire speed, versus a constant weld you want a good combination. I will see if I can find some pics of a stitch weld to go by. If you have any other questions or if something is not clear to you feel free to reply, I will do my best to help out.
