If Mazda can build a 2350 lb. sports car, so can Porsche.
And if they did, it would be a Miata clone, which I seriously doubt any significant level of Porsche owners would want to own.

Admittedly, I'm not on the "every answer is Miata" team, but there are a LOT of compromises to getting to a Miata size/weight vehicle. We should be thankful one OEM is willing to do it, and they basically have the market cornered. No other OEM sees the need to knock them off their pedestal in any real way, or they would have at least tried in the last 30 years.

What I want is a modern MG Midget or Opel GT as a fun run around...
