Exotics Racing - what would you drive?

The AWD Audi was a great car to start with. In June, I'm planning on trying either the GTR (because after I got the Z I'm REALLY curious!) or the 458.

458. No question. The likelihood of somone getting to drive a $100k car outside of one of these events is higher than that of a $250k car.

But most of us here could swing a GTR, even if you have to go used and make sacrifices. If you really love it, it could end up costing you $60-100k.
