I think it's pretty damned impressive that the Cayman can hang with the Exige *and* be a good liveable daily driver with storage room, comfort, etc. The Exige and Elise are great performers, but if you're going to get something that's pretty uncomfortable and limited for street use, but better set up for track, it's hard not to think about the many options you have for a track car in that price-range. Radical, good used 911 race car, 4 or 5 SpecMiatas, etc, etc...
