You can get a big power barge for that.
Merc AMG (E55 etc)
Supercharged Jag XJR
E39 M5

Or some British exotica:
Lotus Esprit V8
TVR Cerbera 4.5 (not much will touch that for the money, let alone anything this side of a Scuderia)

Or as said, a tuned Evo or Impreza, but if I'm honest I wouldn't put them in the same category.

Forget about the 911. That will go for at least twice the budget.

You can get a 4.5 for that though both still epic though.

Aye, that's why I threw in the merc and beemer. Which is why the evo and impreza aren't in the same league imo. Point to point not much will get away (especially with 400bhp!!) But that's all you'll get. The interiors are shockingly cheap compared to the others. A missile, certainly, quality? No.

Also with a tuned car is usually likely to be less reliable too, don't know exactly what has been done and how, etc
