The new Gen (G series) will be a big step up but its also heavier so don't expect any lightweight feel even tough the G series hides its weight in an incredibly effecient way, as showned by the raving G80/82 M3/4 reviews.
I could of also baught a cayman/boxster but my reasonning was that for more than double the price will I have double the fun ? As for the engine I am eager to compare it to my past 2010 MX5 wich I loved driving with 167hp and around 2500lbs weight.

I think you'll get a lot more status but is there anything really more fun on the road than an MX5? I'd even argue they're more fun than Elises because they're more playful. And a well set up NC can even be quicker than an Elise around a short course. Needed a back seat, like tin tops for rigidity but man I would be so OK with an MX5. Where I wouldn't be with a Cayman/Boxster, M2, New Z or the New 3850 lbs M240i. Crazy world haha
