Good shock options are limited, and the cookie-cutter drifty build (welded diff, pick-your-favorite-color coilovers, etc) are pretty horrible to drive.
I love mine but it's not a cheap option by any means.
Miata is the cheapest way to go have fun.

Yeah the 240 I drive on track (and helped build for a friend) has over 20k in it (including the price of the car, which is a very nice 97 SE that had 70k on it). It's fun and pretty damn fast. Too fast for the current suspension (KW V3s). The owner doesn't want to drop the money on better dampers, and to be fair we haven't spent enough time dealing with the V3s.. just replaced the springs with some higher rate swift springs and he's reported it's much better.. I haven't driven it since.
