If you want the most “full-on sim” experience under $60 without iRacing, I’d personally point you straight to Le Mans Ultimate first. It’s one of the few games right now that actually nails that modern endurance vibe, with a super focused package (WEC cars and tracks), great sense of weight through the wheel, and racing that feels intense without needing a massive online ecosystem to be worth it. AMS2 is the safer “best value overall” pick if you want variety, tons of cars/classes, and a great single player experience, but the driving feel can vary a bit depending on the combo. ACC is still a no-brainer if you specifically want GT3 and you’re seeing it cheap, but it’s a narrower lane and can feel a bit same-y if you’re not obsessed with GT racing. Since you already play BeamNG, LMU gives you that proper race weekend structure and serious motorsport atmosphere you’re missing, without the iRacing price tag.
