buy a subaru wrx then, they hold their value far better than the brz/frs does.
also, just because a car has been to the track does not mean its been abused. Honestly the abuse you're alluding to with the WRX/STI crowd are people who do power mods without a proper tune, and just before the car falls apart stock out and sell. this isn't as much of a concern in our world because you can't just install a big downpipe and run an OTS tune. You need to be more concerned with the maintenance of the car, that should be your biggest concern as far as the health of the vehicle.
like i asked earlier, how many tracks do you have around you? if the answer is 0 then you know how often the original owner took it to the track.
