I guess at Porsche prices, I didn't feel as comfortable driving it hard, either. I'd get a Miata again, but I have a kid to stow on rare occasions, now, so I can't go back to a 2 seater.

So, these comparos for BRZ to Miata are perfect for me! They're giving me confidence I'm doing the right thing, even though I'm buying without having driven the car yet (and only seen one in person for 10 minutes).
The Miata and the BRZ are the two cars I'm comparing as well. This article worries me though, sounds like the Miata is more fun to drive everywhere except the track?

If I bought a NC Miata, I'd definitely have fun modding it into a little go-cart. Would just have to factor in the cost of a hard-top and accept the limitations of driving a small two-seater... hmm, choices.
