C300
C63 AMG
A5/S5 (I know it's not Rwd)

Don't buy a G37S - It handles like a whale especially coming from an Ap2 and an Evo.
I would suggest an S2K cr if you don't want to mod. Plus it's got a hardtop for those hot FL days. But the last built date is 08...still, I think you should consider it.
Don't buy a 370Z, it's a G37S that's slightly better in handling but again, not gonna be comparable to an S2k or an Evo.
How about a cayman S?

Keep the info coming guys,
so far top of my list;
135i
370z
???
???
frs.. maybe
Some of the suggestions are definitely interesting, but after a quick search on ebay/cars/truecar it's pretty hard to find some of those cars. keep in mind it will be my daily driver, so it can't have high mileage.
the CR was a good suggestion, but again, really hard to find one in my price range that isn't on its last legs.

Please take 370Z off your list. You will have more issues than you know what to do with. Oil over heating, grinding 5th gear, brake lock up (ice mode), throttle lag. Throttle lag is what made me get rid of mine. You can fix oil over heating and ice mode only happens in hard braking situations, but 5th gear grind and throttle lag are really bad and no fixes. Don't do it.
Cayman or BRZ/FRS should top that list if you want a driver's car like the Evo. I had owned a S2000CR and it was not comparable to my Boxster spyder. Go with the Porsche if you can afford the maintenance. The CR is not a bad bet since I believe it will not go down in price much further.
