The '01 was the first model year of the current Z06, and it has less power than the '02 and newer models. It also had some ring problems that caused excess oil consumption. Finally, since the C6 is coming out soon, C5 prices in general are at rock bottom right now. The sticker on a new Z06 is right around $53K right now, but I could get one for about $46K from one of the corvette forum vendors.

I think Smitty needs to send this guys parents some business cards.
That much power in the hands of an inexperienced driver is usually trouble.

Did we all forget the new 27,000 dollar RX-8. That is one hell of a car.

the 00-02 S4 option is there, you can find a nice low mileage one and chip it and all that good stuff, cant go wrong with an S4

integra with a b20 dohc vtec head with turbo...should run low 12's with around 6-7 thousand into the motor. And you have a nice 8500 redline. You should learn to stand Hondas. Best bang for the buck as far as fast as hell car

Honda is the best for going fast cheaply?

$6-$7k in a Mustang or amaro would equal 10's, and maybe even faster if you didnt need a very nice lookin car.
