TLDR; put a 400hp V8 in a Miata; bonus notes: needed more upgrades than you'd imagine so it wouldn't tear itself apart with torque. All in $10k-$20k in mid-00's money.
I like my current cars, but this thing would be so fun to drive because of its power-to-weight insanity. It'd be like putting a V8 in my old 'Lude sitting there... (don't tempt me!)
