Right, my point was sort of that his "big torque" requirement was a bit of a red herring to begin with. However, you're points are exactly why I said he should stick with the Cayman. Not to mention, an F-Type and S5 aren't light either, right? The Z easily beats those.

I think he needs to reevaluate his expectations at this point.
Exactly. Asking people to help uncover this mysterious, unknown car that is better than what is often referred to as one of the best pure drivers cars on the market is probably a lost cause.

If OP really wants something unique he should find whichever late model or classic sports car out there does it for him and start a project to install the drivetrain of his choice. Putting his own blood, sweat, and tears into might also help him learn to appreciate what he has instead of constantly looking to find then next big thing.
