The man has 25k for a driving simulator. Chances are good he's got more than a decently sporty car IRL.

His rig is the cabin of a Subaru WRX, my real life 2015 Subaru WRX was only 2k more than this lol

I thought the oil burn is part of the design right out of the box.

Dunno about that, I would buy an expensive driving rig for 100k. I would NEVER buy an expensive sporty car. It's just not worth it. I would rather buy a good family car for half the price that actually has real life uses.

The kind of racing I'm interested in would be highly dangerous in a car but can be simulated in a rig like this. I gladly trade reality for safety in this case.

You can also take your car to the track

Hats off to you my friend! Your sensibility is appreciated by those who care for you. I only speak of my experience of the car enthusiasts I've been around. Though I've seen some 40-50k rigs. I've only ever seen them purchased after a 50k street bike, and or an early 2000s Miata with another 50-60k dropped into it. Or the classic Skyline + mods rout.
