I want generate a unique Bitcoin address with vanitygen that has both a given prefix and a given suffix:
1Bit******************Bit
How would I be able to achieve that?

2Out of curiosity, what do you need this for? This could be used maliciously by an attacker trying to replace an address with their own address that has the same first and last few characters, which I hope is not why you're trying to do this.– morsecoderFeb 18, 2016 at 17:38

Vanitygen has a regex option, for generating addresses that match an arbitrary regular expression. I think that
vanitygen -r '^1Bit.*Bit$'
would work.
Note that it will not be able to estimate the expected time that would be required.
