From the sound of it, the Porsche is the best choice for you.
IMS issues are grossly exaggerated with the Cayman 987 platform, especially as the MY's go on. They've been improving on the IMS after 2006 until they eliminated it altogether in 2009.
Maybe a 09+ Cayman would fit the bill. They really are sublime vehicles. I've never felt more confidence than behind the wheel of a Cayman. I would have gotten one, but I do use the rear seats in the 86 from time to time. The GT4 is next on the list for me!
