Without a doubt, there is a trade-off. I've owned some good street cars that were fun to take to the track occasionally but they were by no means dedicated track weapons. Certain things, like shedding weight, (stopping short of removing all comfort), can be mods you don't pay for with pain on the street.
Here is an example of a cheap, schitwagon M3 for sale in L.A. They are really plentiful here:

Are 1995 models hugely more desirable because of the lack of OBDII? I always thought that OBDII was a good thing but not for modding?
