I'd choose the BMW over the Honda. I think you'll have more fun in it.
Most people would think the same based on the FWD v's RWD argument but you'd need to drive a DC2 on a track to find out the truth about how much fun the Integra is, they don't drive like a hot hatch.

(I have owned various E36 including M3evo, 328 sport, 325 etc and its not in the same league as a Dc2).

This is spot on. When you start to really push a DC2 on track it is sensational.

I've owned both. I only hanker for the DC2 again though. But I prefer my cars to be more 'sharp', which the DC2 is. The E36 felt very soft. Nicely balanced, just not responsive enough for me.
As a track car, both will be great. The BMW might be the cheaper though.
