You might be able to get two of these for the price of a TVR...

So you could have one to beat up for racing, and another to keep nice for cruising.
From what I've looked at, the GXP is probably around $30,000(US) and you might add another $5k or so for a GXP-R. Not bad at all for under $40,000... (Provided dealers don't get greedy and mark up the thing like crazy. Even the plain ones don't seem too common for a slick little $20,000-something MSRP car.)
