According to Wikipedia (and therefore, it must be true!), although it was to be a Miata competitor, it's really based on a Mazda 323.

Someplace, somewhere, a Ford product planner is still wincing over this one. The car was developed in parallel with the Meotter (FoMoCo owns how big a piece of Mazda?) and there was an active attempt by Ford to kill the Mazda in favor of the Capri because "there is no market for the car."

We all know how well that turned out.
 
Maybe something from Hyundai?
Scoupe (92hp) somewhere in ITB/ITC
97-01 Tiberon (140hp) probably ITA
03-up Tiberon (134hp) probably ITA
03-up Tiberon GT (170hp) ITS?

How about the 2000-2005 Toyota MR2 Spyder? I think this would be a cool race car since all of the body panels are bolt on it would make minor repair easy.

I think it would be a better as a light ITS car then a heavy ITA car?

Stock curb weight 2195lbs

1.8L
138HP
125TQ

Mid engine

Struts at all four corners?
 
the ZZW-31 (MR-S) would be a wonderful racecar. probably an S car, though @ ~2200#. it's one of the few sporty, small cars avaialable from the last decade that I can think of that is not classified. The RX8 being DOA and everything else seemingly ITR bound as well. It will be fun to see Nissan VQ35 cars and the 2JZ-GE lexus IS compete with the bimmers and ponies in R, soon enough.

there's tons of Korean cars - hyundais kias and daewoos that might actually keep ITC thriving into the future

1.5L hondas and toyotas (scions) should feed B/A.

if SS is any indicator, new GM "small" cars, Mazda 3, and civic Si will be fun to watch, too.
