Any of the eurospec or JDM rally cars. Mitsubishi Evo's , Subaru Sti, Peugeot 206, Citroen Xsara, Ford Focus RallySport etc...

A real Lotus Elise, not the muted version being sent stateside or Opal's new Elise knockoff the Speedster.

or Opel's new Astra (concept)

I forget the name of the company that does it but, you too can have a R34 Skyline street legal in the US for around 95k.
on a more reasonable level I really wish Honda would bring all the type Rs stateside. NSX-R, Integra (RSX) type-R, Civic type-R, Accord type-R. Also the STi and the Evo VII would be nice.
