If you can get a WRX you can get a C5Z...


I paid $3500 for my wrx haha. I wouldn't want to learn on a track in a c5z anyways. Its way too much power, and not exactly confidence inspiring at the limit.

ok i'm going to start taking a look at miatas and rx7s
brz/corvettes are too expensive

2 questions:
1) would a wrx be good?
2) if i get a car from a rental place can i take it to the track?


Yes and no, an awd car will perform much differently that a rwd car. Learning in a rwd car will most likely be much more beneficial.

WRXs are not really known for their reliability though either.
