Great! So far, with his suggestion, dabneyd is clearly in the lead!
I was surprised to see how inexpensive the Crossfire, Spitfire, MR2, 180/240SX, even the GT-R (R34) are under 50,000 (
www.mygranturismo.net lists the GT5 cars - most specs are similar or identical in GT6 -you can filter or sort options if you are looking for ideas)
Many of the former Standard cars are now available - choose early (but not often, this ain't Chicago...).
I can pay attention to choices for another couple hours, then we have theater tickets downtown.
