They're old, but most of the quickest cars at our BMW club track days are stripped out 2 door E30s with modded versions of the M20 12 valve straight six. Once stripped out they're light. With a good set of springs & shocks they handle. With a good set of pads they stop. Parts are relatively cheap (from o/s...) & still abundant. They often come up for sale as there are so many around still. They're not super powerful but you can bolt in most of the newer 24V sixes including M3 donks. LS1s even fit in without much hassle. I'm sorry I sold my last one.
