Not about HP, although there are guys with 400+ HP Elises with built engines/supercharge kits. For me it's about fun, not about competition. And the Elise is a lot more fun on the track than my 911SC was in my opinion. YMMV.

You were driving MUCH better lines than some of the drivers you passed in your video. Good driver + fun car = fun day.
OP, it feels like you have some fairly muddled objectives (no offense). Buying a car to satisfy 2-4 track days, cars + coffee, and being fairly unique feels like a hodge podge decision. I think you need to pick 1 or 2 of those priorities. Just my 2 cents.
