While the wider and heavier BRZ is much nicer in almost every way, that little Miata could dance on its toes with its stickier tires and smaller wheelbase.
Again, I feel the BRZ is just like a grown up more mature sibling to the Miata I had. Against the newer Miata, the differences are probably less pronounced.

I was thinking that something along the lines of an S2000 would be good(er). 250 HP + 2500 lbs would be ideal.

Too heavy for the fun that I want to have.
Again, sorry to all for straying OT.
