My 2 cents on this, I have a 228i which I love to death and have put dinan springs and a jb+ tune in and think it handles and drives great. My dad has a 2014 boxster he let's me drive when I'm home from school and it might just be the 6 cylinder compared to my 4 but it is just an absolute blast to drive and just feels and sounds amazing. The boxster isn't that fast when you're staring at the speedometer but when actually driving it just feels faster and sportier and just more fun. There are very few cars I would rather drive on a backroad.

I think the 2 is a little more understated and practical but if you don't care about either of those things then I think switching over is totally reasonable. I would say the 6 cylinder is worth it instead of a newer 718 but I don't have much experience with the 718 and am sure it is fantastic as well.
