If you don't blow up the tranny

Like a rustang at that power level put together with the same budget as the dsm wouldn't? BS. The 4g63 powertrain and driveline is very well designed the 1g on all seasons is the best combo for longevity + power. The only reasons dsms get a bad rep are from budget basement kids buying 200k beat up cars trying to mod them without doing any proper maintence. Look at the Evo's being modded in the states there are plenty that hold at this power level for years.

I would say an Evo, STI, or 370Z. They are both under $50K. For that kind of price, you can't buy any other new car that can match their performance. The 370Z performs a little better than the Evo or the Sti, but they have the advantages of AWD for performance on surfaces other than tarmac. An S2K may probably give you more thrill, but in reality, it doesn't perform as well. A 335i or C350 is more expensive. The G35 and the 350Z were close when they were new, but they don't perform as well and they are a bit more expensive as well.

C63 AMG.

Against its rivals, the M3, RS4, and ISF. The AMG is a bargain.
