Sigh. I understand that. I have a Miata-class racecar that I enjoy and race it in endurance events. I'm also absurdly obsessive and go to the track quite literally every other weekend (of course, current COVID situation excluded).
But ... I also enjoy the M240 as my "fast" car... For the weekends when the MR2 is in the shop. Or just when I want faster times -- it's a couple of seconds faster than a SpecE46 (but slower than a properly built racecar in ST4).
I'm not particularly worried about resale value -- it's my view that with this hobby you have to be ready to walk out of a steaming wreck of metal. It's a very different (and liberating) mindset than treating a track car as an "investment" -- which absolutely never works out.
