Sup /o/,

What would be the car with the richest racing history you can buy with $30k? Needs to be the exact same generation as said history..

In burger land.

Ford Mustang 5.0 2013-14 with Performance Pack

If a Mustang doesn't have racing heritage then neither does anything else below this post. That and it's a good all around car. Decent handling that can always be improved with the leftover money, awesome acceleration, practical, reliable, and the 5.0 just sings at high rpms, like two Honda B-Series joined at the crank.

IMSA and Le Mans

Although the correct answer is the most successful touring car of the modern age.

if your looking for professional racing history.. porsche.. any 911.

If you are looking for a car who's make and model is raced by amateurs on tracks perhaps more than any other.. miata

Also, 2011+ Kia Optima's started racing in the Pirelli World Challenge, wining the GTS class (competing with Mustangs, Camaros, Porsches, and Cadillacs) multiple times.

If you want a car that actually has racing history you don't want something street legal. Fortunately there are many old race cars available for a fraction their original cost. Really it just depends on what interests you. It could be anything from an old vintage formula atlantic to a trans am stock car.

Corvette

>>13901802
But S197s have zero racing history. They completely failed GT3, and are utterly unremarkable in every other category. I don't think they even competed in Grand Am GT.

Sounds to me like you could get a lot for your money with spec miata.

Its really not clear what this car would be used for... Will you be racing?
>>
>>13901767
The 911 is probably the single most successful race car of all time. Granted it's been in its current configuration for a good 50 years, so take that with a grain of salt.
You could get a RX-7, they're supposed to be really fun to drive.
You could also get a subaru or evo for muh rally performance

>racing history
What the fuck are you talking about?

Are you shopping for a retired SCCA MG?

Or do you think some used base model 996 911 Carrera is somehow a race car?

Please explain.
>>
>>13904615
>>13904828

Yeah, probably 911 or RX7.
Corvette isn't bad too if it's the right model.
Skyline is the other.
E30 and E46 I guess to round it out to 5 but only if you strip that shit down and do a lot of work to make it no longer so street car.

RX7s dominated back and forth with Skylines in a lot of race series. RX7s are still winning their classes today, not to mention 24 hours of Lemons. RX7 pretty much dominate what they weren't banned from or essentially banned from.
And the RX7 has the most "track car for the street" feel to them.

Those are at least $50k now. R32 GTR is probably the cheapest "homologation special" you can get that isn't some joke like a Peugeot 206GT
