[s-cars] Track car or not track car

Hi all,

After all this thread about unobtainium modern track cars versus cheap
old design track cars, what about a 900 lbs "car", 0.2 sec slower than a
F50 on 0-60 mph, 1.9 lateral g, sequential 6 speed, for just above
40K$... available in US. BTW, it's street legal too. OK, this "car" have
been designed in Quebec so I may be a bit biased but even with one wheel
less than any other suggestion I've read here, it seems to be the best
track toy available here for the not-faint-hearted-wallets.

Wise choise.  An E30 325iS is a great car.  You will have lots of fun
with
it, and if you wreck it, you can go cry for two minutes and the buy
another
one for $4,000!

I still want one, but think the 944/951 is really a better chassis out
of
the box.  It's got coil-overs and kick ass brakes right from the
factory!
But, I'll eventually build up a dedicated E30 track car once I have more
time/money and both of the two.

Later,
Dan
