This will likely be a spring 2015 project if I trade in my waverunner. I'll look into E36 M3's, but they are kinda scarce here. What's the going rate for a clean one? I'd also have to consider chassis and suspension parts cost for an M3-I'm sure they are not as cheap as a Miata.

It would be primarily for a fun project car to drive on the weekend with the occasional autocross or track day. I'm getting bored again and weighing this versus another 4th gen (LS1 powered) or a turbo miata.
