Simply: $15K budget, needs back seats, but not 4 dr. Most fun you can get? Autocrossing sunny day driver fun play toy..... On your marks, get set, Washington or Oregon, Go...

Do real people have to get in the back seats? Kids? Double amputees?

The answer will be e36 m3 regardless

Does that budget buy an e46 m3 with 100k and maintenance records? I don't know bmw values very well.

E36 M3 for sure. I've had an rx8 and it's just not fun unless you drive it at the limit, at which point it's really fun, but because it has no low end torque it's street manners are generally boring. If you were going for general fun car I wouldn't go with it. Track autox car, yes.

M3 or 3 series coupe, s197 mustang gt, rx8, mazdaspeed 3, wrx, g35, or throw any sense of sensibility out of the window and buy a cheap xk8.

Really nice 94-96 Impala SS with money left over for mods.

04-06 GTO

G8 GT, you won't find a GXP. They made less than a thousand.
