That's a pretty big gap. Cayman S is 3,050 pounds and the Alpine is 2,430 pounds.
Holy shit I didn't realize how light the Alpine is. 3k pounds sounds like a great sweet spot but I just have a hard time believing a car weighing 2,400 pounds will be quiet or comfortable enough to actually be a quality daily driver.
Having owned a few Miatas that are around that weight, it's going to depend on whether you want to live with a sports car, or really want more of a GT. Fluff weighs something. How much do you need?
This. If you can choose only one choose wisely at which you prefer to drive daily. If you can have more than one then you get both and decide which one is your DD and which one is the weekender
