If that's what you want to do, then the Elise/Miata/S2000 are, in my opinion, the best options.
If you want to run big tracks (And I've driven Autobahn and really liked it), you'll feel like the stock Miata is way underpowered. You'll probably feel that way about the Elise after awhile too. I haven't driven the M3 on the track yet, but I'm guessing that I'd eventually decide it was underpowered. It seems you can never have enough power...

No I do, but I guess I'm still trying to figure out what the best alternative is and what car to go with. I really prefer rwd and you guys are saying that the cheaper cars like neons and stuff are better for auto cross.
I wouldn't mind having a car for both worlds autox and the bigger tracks, e36 m3 just seems like the route to go.

Yeah even cheaper then the m3 and easier to find.
