I already got an STI, great daily driver but I dont find them very useful for track due to AWD.

I have driven a few cars on the track here at BIC and honestly nothing NOTHING beats a Caterham!!!
Caterham Cars - Designed for racing, built for living
It is relatively inexpensive to buy and cheap as hell to run… which is very important if you plan on hitting the track frequently
Performance of the Caterham is amazing I have seen is lap at RGT and both cars we driven by remarkable drivers.
I think the “Academy” is more than enough but it you like go for the “Superlight R400” anything more is just too much!!!

Are there any kart tracks near you? Do some searches and see what leagues and types of karts are raced in your area. You can usually pick up a good used 80 or 125cc shifter cart with all the extras for 5-8K here in the states. IMO it's the best learning tool. The cost per hour of seat time is very very hard to beat & you'll get wheel to wheel racing. It usually costs about 3K per season in fuel & tyres.

YouTube - DIY Caterham vs The Stig - Top Gear - BBC autos
Actually had a friend order the kit and put it together in about a week working 3-4 hours a day.
The car is very basic and parts are very much available all over even in Turkey…
