Wide range of choices...I would narrow it down to one of the F bodied models, Vette, Eclipse.. but $5K?? like someone said an F body with the LS1 or just one with LT1... You could get an earlier C4 close to that price too... but then you have to deal with insurance (not sure if it would be an issue in your case or not)...

Fiero? man , those things are old and ugghh
Grand Prix? Not in the same category.
RX7, rotary is a pia ... I had one ...

What are your priorities? Would this be your only car? Is this a beater/DD and you have a fun/fast car in the garage? All-weather capability? Need room for family/friends? Etc, etc, etc...
