As someone who owns an 86/FR-S, I can tell you it's a great car. As long as you're not expecting gobs of power, or have grown kids, it'll serve you great. I used to daily drive it for 55k miles, and that includes moving with it, weekly grocery runs, and even buying and taking home a 55" TV. It can be pretty fuel efficient if you drive it conservatively, and can be quite fun when you don't. haha. But again, don't expect a lot of straight line speed out of one.

You guys have the Sportage for hauling a lot of stuff if need be, so I would suggest taking a test drive of an 86 to see how you fit in it, how you like the seating of it, and anything else that may concern you about it. Bring a friend in addition to you wife and see how all of you fit in one.
