Just some background.. I currently own a modified NSX. It's been lightened, supercharged, with aggressive suspension, and a racing seat. It's probably similar to your Elise in many ways pertinent to this conversation. My 6AT BRZ is certainly no replacement for my NSX.

My friend recently asked me why do I still have both? I mentioned to him that the BRZ is like your everyday morning coffee while my NSX is like the shot of cocaine you need once a month. I also bought my BRZ with an automatic (which I love very much) so there is little overlap.

Just something to think about... As good as the Toyobaru is, I have a feeling you will miss the Elise. I suppose you can get a 6MT and go FI. That setup may fill the void some.
