Looking for the Best $30K Street Racing Ride – Any Suggestions?

Alright, I’ve got around $30K to spend on a car that’ll hold its own in street racing. I’m torn between something with solid stock performance or a platform that’s easy to mod without breaking the bank. What’s your pick? I’ve been eyeing used Mustang GTs or maybe a lightly used Civic Type R, but I’m open to other options. What’s the best bang for the buck in this price range? Let’s hear your thoughts!
