Its hard to beat a 911 gt3 cup. Well, the miata might but it fares better than any supercar. They are affordable and don't cost that much to operate. Its a Porsche so the thing is reliable. Its hard to top the spec miata if you are doing club racing. I think the Porsche can offer somehow similar enjoyment while being faster.

If you are feeling lucky then try out rallying. A miata will also work but its quite a different experience.



A gt3cup is expensive to maintain. IIRC 100k/yr for engine and trans rebuilds.

(I have a GT4 car from another mfg and it is much less onerous)


That sounds about right. I don't think its that expensive given the car itself. I've personally turned wrenches on street cars with higher maintenance costs than that (due to big turbos and pump gas). Still way more than a Miata, though. :)


Used 997 GT3cup cars sell for approximately the same as the one year engine and trans rebuild. Too much.
