The E36 M3 is quite the weapon of choice for RWD, but can bite if you're not careful. Doesn't really fit the other specs though.
You might consider the small french hatchbacks like the 106 GTI or the 306 GTI6, 205 GTI if you're going to get something older, only a couple in the US as far as I know, so value would go high up there.
Citroen Saxo is the same as the 106 but usually cheaper, but both have been a bit done do death by ricers so they have a reputation in most places. You can try a Citroen Xsara xsi which is almost the same as the 306 but much cheaper.
Maybe a Renault 5 if you fancy going old, the GT Turbo is getting rare, but Turbo cars usually don't fare very well on the ring.
A Williams is a good car as well, but they might start to be more expensive than what you're willing to spend, but on the other hand the 182/187/... Clios are getting cheaper and they have amazing chassis, but maybe too recent?
Going to Italy you can get stuff from Fiat Uno turbos or Autobianchi Abarth's if that's up your alley or something like a Fiat Barchetta as a convertible or the Coupe 20V Turbo, no idea if they sold in the us. They don't handle that good though.
An Alfa Romeo is a good shout but you got most of them in the US I reckon.
