If I were in your shoes, my list would look like this:
1. As new a 911tt you can afford
2. C7
3. Viper
4. Used Z06

A 2008 or so Viper would be the cheapest way to get to that power level, and it'll deal with the power a lot better than the GT500. The GT500 can't fit enough tire to deal with stock levels of power. I'd go with a ZL1 before a GT500. The CTS-V would be a great fast daily driver that handles very well for its size, but it'll never be considered nimble.

Plus, all of the cars above can be had with a proper transmission. That's one of the reasons I'll never own a GTR.
