Honestly with your commute I'd go BRZ. It will get the best gas mileage if you baby it, several people on here including me get 32 mpg dd'ing it.
Are you mechanically inclined? If you can do your own work then you might chance a cayman. Or maybe get a normal dd and something a little older and more fun like a 2nd or 3rd gen Supra or an MR2 or look for a deal on something interesting in your local want ads, craiglist or auto trader.
And you say you won't mod it, but if you go to meets and drive some of the modded cars you might change your mind, Just a few tweeks can really change the behavior of the car.

Thanks everybody. Not sure I'm any closer to making a decision, maybe even more unsure now. I think I'll probably buy the best deal in the end.
I kinda feel like the high maintenance may be offset a bit when comparing with a newer car depreciating more(for a Corvette, maybe not a Porsche). I actually also considered keeping my DD and getting an older 996 just for fun. Their cheap enough(under 20k with IMS replaced). But for 20k I can almost get the Cayman that's much newer and probably a better choice for a DD.
I used to do all my own maintenance. Have rebuilt bikes from bottom up, rebuilt a T350 years ago in a truck, etc. Was really into 4X4s for years. Honestly, I don't want to deal with that anymore.
