this is pushing the price envelope a little bit but bang for buck a Mitsubishi Evolution IX RS. You can buy it used for a little cheaper. It is just really fast. You could pick up a VIII for mid 20's in really nice condition. All wheel drive, 276hp, years of rally heritage. Low 13's on the 1320 and high 9's on the skidpad. Brembos, turbocharged, recaros. You can't get anything better for the price. The next best option would be a subaru wrx, sti if you can afford it, but the new wrx's work quite well.
