Porsche's styling is too similar throughout it's lifetime, which to soe people is appealing. In summary, the best handling car I'd pick for $60k would be Evora S, for $25-30k I'd pick BRZ.
You can't really get a new Cayman of any kind. They're switching the production lines to the new Boxster and Cayman. Really only leaves talking about used ones .

32k can get you a CPO 2007 Cayman with low miles. Makes the BRZ a hard choice. FRS represents a good value in this context.
