Perhaps another solution...

My Saab is close to your performance level Steve88SiS so I understand your situation and desire for more performance. But I don’t think I could ever get rid of my upgraded NG900. What I love about my Saab is it has such a good combination of practicality and performance. However I know I can only take my Saab so far, so I find that the most logical solution is to keep my Saab and buy a track car to be my next toy. I think in a few years I might buy a used Lotus Elise and turn it into a pure race car.
For me I love a quick acceleration and taking a turn fast. My Saab does this very well, but to continue to feed my addiction I will eventually need a new car entirely. But any car that does substantially outperform my Saab will have less caring capacity, worse fuel economy and worse bad weather handling. These are things I am not willing to give up in my daily driver. The only solution I can see for myself is to eventually buy a stripped down dedicated track car.
