I was at first excited to replace the car, but I think I'm just going to hang out and if something really cool comes along at a good price, E36, E30, 964, etc..., I'll be ready to buy.
There's an E30 M3 stroked to a 2.5 that I've seen a few times at the track - and it is wicked fast. The car is at least as fast as some of the Vipers and Vettes.

If I didn't like the Porsche 911 so much, the E30 M3 (not the later ones), would be at the top of my list as it reminds me so much of a 911 - purpose oriented toward driving, simple, reliable, and nice readable gauges.

What more is there to want?
