Okay, here's a Question: Suppose I can fly all ships from frig to BS and I want to find the most cost effective ship for dishing out viable DPS in PvP. I'm not looking for sucide ships, but 'throwaway' is certainly an option though I never like throwing away a ship.
Limitations: No faction. No Drugs. Raw DPS before Overheating. T1 or T2 ships.
What do I want to fly for Solo PvP and not cry crocadile tears when it goes pop?

If you're solo, I don't think your choice of ship is going to matter as much as your choice of target.
I don't think you're really going to find an end-all answer to this kind of question. Otherwise everyone would already be flying one and you wouldn't need to ask. =P

based solely on DPS vs cost, t1 cruiser, no question. For actual effective solo pvp where you'll need both DPS and the ability to tank damage, then t1 battlecruiser.
T1 ships are pretty much entirely insurable losses sans rigs, and you wouldn't want to use rigs on a t1 cruiser/bc other than super cheap rigs. ie shield resist rigs when they were <1mil per is fine for a t1 cruiser, but at 2-4mil each, wouldn't bother til bc/drake. -------------------------- NOTR How to Fail at Eve

Typhoon. It requires quite a bit of SP though. -

If you talk about solo pvp like in 'No scout alts', then use fast aligning ships. The bigger the ship you choose, the quicker you'll lose it to a gate camp.
Have fun!

So i will be training Minny BS5 into the new year
EFT declares that the phoon be superior in every damn way to the pest at close range. I want to love the pest, i don't want to train torps. Convince me otherwise.
Also:
t1 Frigs: Incursus/tristan/kessie T2 Frigs: Wolf, Ishkur, Ret BC's: Cane/Gank brutix

Kessie???
T1 Frigs: Tristan, Rifter, ? T2 Frigs: Taranis, Jaguar, Ishkur, SB (limited role) T1 Cruisers: Rupture, Thorax T2 Cruisers: Zealot, ... sooo many to choose from! But all of them prohibatively expensive. BC - Hurri, Myrm, Harbi BS - Domi (Neutron hell!), Typhoon, Mega. Difficult to solo with tho, by far.

Theoretically Typhoon can dish out ~1300 dps (level 5 skills) without rigs and implants. But it's very skill intensive as it requires a bit of points in Torps, Projectiles and Drones. The OP asked about pure DPS/Cost which Typhoon is the king at especially when fully insured. Dominix is a better choice if you're looking for utility/tankability in my opinion. Tier 1 battleships get an edge over tier 2 and tier 3 ships due to their large drone bays. Of course all this changes once you start adding other requirements to your ship's role. Range? Mobility? Tanking? -

Vexor...
Not the best for solo pvp (not bad though), but it's 650+ dps capability is pretty insane for the money.

Vexor gets my vote too. Awesome ship. Cheap, powerful, flexible and it scales quite well with cost.

Training Minmatar battleships to 5 as your first/solo Battleship 5 skill plan is. . .a very bad idea. IMO.
Cost - DPS - Caracal hands down, but thats just pure DPS. For Cost/PvP Fun - I think AFs are really fun for FW/Empire stuff. And Recons are for 0.0. ----
