I see this has been asked many times. SORRY!
How strong is the rear end and tranny? My dad has a VR-4, I dont feel comfortable with the tranny, but its nice. Despite the weight, the car is extremely nimbal and was able to complete the slalom at 67.6 MPH according to car and driver, one of the fastest of the supercars in the early 90's. But, it's an expensive car to maintain and I still dont feel comfortable with the tranny... Think I'm leaning towards the 300...
