Factoring depreciation and consumables I'm gonna guess it's going to be a wash compared to keeping that E92, but more expensive when it breaks.

I raced NASA CMC in my 20's. Did a bunch of SCCA stuff too. I loved it. But I'm done with wrenching on a racecar. If I need to scratch that W2W itch, I'll go sign up with Driver's Edge or Chin and run the black group for a weekend at COTA. But trying to maintain a whip for a series and actually be competitive ... maybe after the kids are out of the house.
I do wonder about the depreciation bit, as these are going to be last of breed. The V-Wagons have held up quite nicely. I agree that the consummables and maintenance things will likely be a wash.
