In homebuilts, I'd look at the Glassair Super 2S, the Express, the
Velocity and (if you can find one at that price) the Swearengen SX300



The Express would be an outstanding choice for an IFR platform. The Velocity
would be OK too. The SX300 and Glassair would not be on my list. The KIS
(Pulsar) Super Cruiser is also a good choice with just below 200 mph cruise
(more possible with right engine prop combination). The Lancair ES would be at
the high end price wise but would be one of the best.

A real nice SX300 can be had for $200,000 or so. Dunno about
it as a choice IFR platform, but I know two owners that I can ask
if anyone has that kind of serious money for shaving 20 minutes
off a daily drive to work.
