what's gonna be your track car. You should pick up a B5 S4 to beat on. It would be perfect to mod as a track car.

Well...
E30, E36, E34, Mcoupe, Mroadster BMW's, 944 or 968 Porsche's, Miata (with hp increase), RX-7, Mustang Cobra R, IRS Cobra, C5/C6 Corvette, or even a Radical if you can snag one under $30k.
All are better choices for a purpose built track car IMO. S4's are fun, but make too many compromises if all you need is a toy for the track.
If you are fixed on AWD, pick up a DSM, Evo, or Subie.

for all the money you'd spend making a B5 s4 track worthy
I'd just get an elise brand new or slightly used. And then, after you can say you can actually handle that car on track, maybe you could do this to it:
