You can build a V8 Miata for about $15-20k that will run circles around pretty much anything. Chech out the forum, there is a member running a beast like that. Now that, is value for the money.

My lightly modded 93 already corners as fast as the M3 (faster in the really tight stuff), it kind of makes me wonder...

And I still like the Evo more than the STI, if we are comparing AWD turbo cars with a lot of potential for modification.

So to counter your statement, there are alternatives out there for under $30k...
