Garage
Cross Shopping: Used Cayman S or Used Fiat 500

Yes I know, two completely different cars and different price ranges but hear me out. Lately I've been wanting to try something new. I love the BRZ and I have no plans to sell it but eventually it will transition to mostly track use and will remain in my forever garage. What I am looking for is something that will not only make me excited to drive everyday but also keep me awake on my daily 45 minute commutes

On one hand I like the fiat because a decent used convertible abarth runs around 15k and offers a totally different driving experience than the BRZ. I find it to be somewhat more of a novelty and I think the car has tons of character.

On the other hand an older decent used 1st gen cayman S for about 30k is obviously the better performer and track car, and, well it's a Porsche. I've always dreamed of owning a Porsche, but I worry that at the end of the day it might be almost too similar to the BRZ.

Will the novelty of the abarth wear off after owning it for a while?
Will the cayman S be too redundant to have alongside the BRZ?
From the standpoint of pure fun, is the extra 15k for the Porsche worth it?
Are these terrible choices?
