i think the evo is the best.
Id say either the Evo or the Skyline, and of course, the Honda's
Evo- The New PRUVEN autosports Evo is the fastest evo on earth at something like 11.???@127? MPH dun remember the exact time. Adn it looks completely stock from the outside. So that goes to show how much potental is hidden in that beast.
Skyline- This car is like the standard for japanese performance companies just for its sheer power and torque, and AWD. and you can easily double its HP with a couple of bolt ons.
Honda- Civic, Tegra, and so on. Just because damn, go to any car part site and look. Thee will be more parts for honda's than anythign else. There are so many parts for one of these you will never see 2 of the exact same (unless they were made to look alike)

I know, but look at all the things it can do!

Probably the Skyline
All around performance per dollar? FC3S RX-7 Turbo II. For half the price of a new Evo you can built an FC that will out-accelerate and outhandle 99% of the cars you'll run up against.
To me, a good tuner car is cheap enough to leave enough money for upgrades and repairs/rebuilds. I just can't see dropping 30 large on a car and then violating the warranty on it. The Evo will be a primo tuner car in a few years when they start going out of warranty and they lose half their value. Face it, if you want a car with a lot of potential, then I assume you want to use it - and if you use a car to its fullest potential you're gonna break ****.
Of course my choices doesn't necessarily apply outside of North America. In other parts of the world where R32 GT-Rs and such are four-digit USD cars, it's a different story.

Well you need a car that's gona withstand harsh treatment if your gona tune it, that why I'm not sure if top end Skylines are suitable.
If your gona tune your car you have to realy make the choice if you want to use it for track days and so on or just for on the roads. Then you can allow for repair expenses and such like.

I don't know if I would really consider any Japanese cars supercars, maybe that ZZII thing, but I've never seen or heard much of them outside of GT3.
Not that that's a bad thing, cars like the NSX and RX-7 are much better looking than most if not all 'supercars', and much easier to afford and live with.
edit - I'd really like to see an 8 rotor race car of some kind
