Default Considering different car, any suggestions?

I am thinking about buying a different car, I currently have a 2003 Mustang GT with all the mods below. I have previously owned a 1989 Mustang LX. My mustang is nice, but its not as good of a sports car as I would like. I want a car that looks sexy and handles the best. I test drove a 2003 Z06 recently and the ergonomics and handling surpassed the mustang 10x more. But I dont really looks of the front, but I love the back. So I am stuck on the looks of that car. I would like to spend $30,000 on a used car. I am considering anything imports, domestics. My main priority is handling and second is looks. My consider actions so far is, Corvette Z06, BMW M3 (around 2000 year model), Viper GTS (Thats hard to find and usually upper 30's), Mitsubishi Evo 8, Porsche Carrea..... What would you get, if you were me and why? Thanks.

Its a nice looking car, but I would never buy a front wheel drive car. Its either all-wheel drive or rear wheel drive.

The Z06 is the best sports car for the money...period. I would get the z06. The front looks awesome.

I thought I was in the twilight zone, but this is in another section too, I said STi maybe, or the BMW or hell, you can throw in a steeda suspension that'll give u good handling.

Hmmmm,

There lots of nice, sporty cars out there if you ask me.. Lexus Si is, Acura RSX or even the Nissan Z.. All 3 are sporty, good power and probably drive really well.. The Si has more class, RSX more reasonably priced and the Nissan Z is the 2 door sports car..

Thats just 3.. I've seen some 4 door family cars that are just SMOKIN.. Good luck..
