Which is why people are saying Boxster, it's a Miata with more power. To enjoy a Miata, you need very tight and twisty roads, there's no shove in the back so you better have the right conditions for it.

As to the comment above re, prices on Caymans and Boxsters, be careful, the cheaper end of the scale has the engine with both IMS issues and high potential for bore scoring so go in eyes wide open. I know the 911 market better and there's a solid 10K difference between an 08 and an 09 for this reason.

I wouldn't write off the Z4 TBH, especially the last one with the NA straight 6.
