It replaces the Cadillac. I lost some (factory) horsepower but gained a few torques. I also got an extra pedal and two more cogs.
I got burned to the effect of $350 on the Eldo. That’s acceptable.
The new ride is right-wheel drive and currently rolling on Firehawk meats. It’s not purple (yet?). Pictures and ‘reveal’ coming soon. In the mean time take guesses if’n it makes ya feel good.

My first thought is R32, but I’m hoping it’s not that.

There isn’t an R32 in existence I’d purchase at a sub-$2000 price point

If a car is right-wheel drive, doesn’t that means it will want to just drive in very large clockwise circles?

Some people may say that, yes, if by ‘clockwise’ you mean ‘counter-clockwise’

Or a mustang at least. When did they cross the 300hp threshold?
Edit: looks like not till 2010 for the v6, which puts you in fox body territory for cheap v8s

On retrospect, I thought right-wheel drive meant right-hand drive.
