Yep, get a miata. I got a '97 with a the optional hardtop and 45K miles for $8K. They are ultra reliable (the bottom end of the engine is based on a turbo engine. They are inexpensive, rear wheel drive, fun, have a huge aftermarket following. You have tons of options from stock to spec racer.

I needed to sell my daily driver 911 for monetary purposes, so I needed to replace it with something reliable and inexpensive that would still be fun. It's hard to step down to a plebian car after a 911 after all. The miata fit the bill.
