Consumables are fairly cheap, and OEM+ upgrades from the 135i and M models are available for cheap also.

3. Camaro V6 1LE - This probably doesn't need an explanation, but these things are utterly ridiculous on track. So much speed, for so little money. Best part? They need nothing to track hard at HPDE4+/instructor levels of speed. You can make okay power on the V6 w/ bolt ons and flex fuel and it revs pretty high. Definitely an option to put on your radar.
These are some good suggestions (and underrated cars generally). They tend to fly under the radar vs the 135i and ss 1le, but arereally good dual use street/track cars.
