That's a tough call between the E36 and the Miata...The Miata is a great car to learn how to drive in. It is fast enough that you can get yourself in trouble, but slow enough for you to fix a mistake pretty easily. The Miata is also super cheap to repair and maintain. If you have a decent amount of track experience then the E36 is a nice step up from the Miata. More powerful, similar handling prowess, but more expensive in every way.
It might also come down to whether you like open-air tracking or prefer the added protection of a coupe.

Get. It. In. Writing. Seriously...have a specific rider added to your policy outlining that the coverage extends to track use. Any incident that occurs on a track will get major scrutiny from adjusters and result in having a he-said, she-said argument about compensation.
