down here in socal the base z goes for a bit over 31k and i try not to compare the vert as all its weight goes to something other to performance (i guess well have to wait to compare vert to vert). another thing that i think gets overlooked is the flipside of the tire argument. people are well aware of how much tires improve the handling but i dont think people seem to acknowledge what they will to to mpg. i would still assume its better than that of the z though.

here in socal it sells for $1200 more than the brz so i dont really know what price point you are thinking of but i think its a pretty good deal if thats what youre into. the original z creator said that the miata is the spiritual successor to the original z and spoke highly of the twins while criticizing the 350/370 for its weight so if nissan listens, you might get your wish.
