Sorry, you just happened to post in a serious snake pit - that is, bringing up the 325i. Cheap it is not. To build a front running ITS, or ITR car, you'll be spending fairly big bucks as Jeff mentioned.

After you read a bit I think you'll agree that top build 325i's are able to take on top build Boxsters and V8s. But the key word there is top build. Buddy up with some local racers and learn what it takes to run upfront. IT is relatively low-cost, but there is that word "relatively". I don't think many on the board would argue that a top prepped 325 will run $20k to $40k, you can spend it all at once and buy a car, or trickle it in over time.
