The problem I see with waiting is there are no other cars like it, either now or in the immediate future.

ND Miata appears to be convertible only. New Mustang is 3600-3900 lbs, depending on trim. The new Camaro promises to be lighter, but will exceed 3400 lbs. Alfa 4c is well over $50k. Nissan IDX concept likely won't make it to production due to lack of potential platform sharing options. The Kia Stinger concept probably has the best chance of production, but it's not a sure bet and the stripped down concept car was already pushing 2900 lbs.

The FR-S, being a sub-2800 lbs RWD coupe for $25k, is kind of a unicorn. You can wait but the question is, wait for what?
