Check out SDRogers clone of the Jerry Titus 70 TA racecar. Here's one of the threads over at performanceyears.com's tech forums

He's over in europe. That car is incredible....theres a youtube video link in one of the threads showing the car smoking other cars including Porsches. More threads in the forum there about that car too.

The above ideas would fit well with your goal. Here are some great wheels, the New Gen Lite: http://www.newgenwheels.com/Wheels/lite.html

These would look cool on an early second gen too. They have a Rally II feel to them. http://www.newgenwheels.com/Wheels/500.html
