Mazdaspeed Miata
NC Miata
350z
WRX
GTO

Or open to any other suggestions

No mods will be done to the car and no motor swaps of older cars are my rules.

I want something streetable, LSD (for donuts), and a reliable ride

Mazdaspeed Miata - too slow
NC Miata - too slow and ugly
350z - too fat
WRX - too likely to have been beat on
GTO - THIS.

I would love a clean msm. You can get them for pretty cheap with low miles. I havent checked prices recently, but a good condition Z may be hard to find for 13k. My dad picked one up last year, and he had 3 checked over by dealers until he found one with a good condition clutch.

What are you looking for? Would a mustang/camaro be on the list?

How about an rx7 fd? 300zxtt?

What about buying one already modded and sorted out? $13k will buy you an NA or NB Miata with the whole Flyin' Miata catalog installed in it.

I'd try and find a clean turbo FC or FD RX-7. I wouldn't want two roadsters, anything fwd. Maybe a clean MR2 or 95-97 300ZX TT - a hatchback sports car would be a great companion to an S2000 imo.

13k?

Buy and old Z-car (70's/80's), restore it a little and throw in a cheapo 350/383 V8. It'd be more fun than you can comprehend right now.
