Im thoroughly enjoying rolling round in my 2ZZ MR2 while I look for my next "DD" (only use the car once a week and then weekend duties as I use my bike). I always have the desire for a 2+2 but always come back to an Elise derivative.

Is there another 2+2 I have missed, or is the Elise the only option (obvs losing the 2+2 option)? 911s too fat, i8s do nothing for me, 4C doesn't convince me

Ive been through a 135R, S2 111s, Europa S and S2 Honda Elise.

I dont want to spend too much and Im fond of the S2 shape (not man enough for a S1).

What else is there?

I have the desire to spend some time out with the family in the car. It would be nice to be able to do that with a 2+2. Go on a nice road trip / weekend away.

I always feel a little guilty with a 2 seater, as it's only ever me and one other.
Gt86 probably not special enough as a 2+2 option. The Evora is a good shout... I've been looking at them when they come up for sale around 25k.

I've also looked at 944s which were always a favourite of mine as a child.

I prefer my mk3 MR2 to the s2000 and boxter to be honest.

I still have a desire for an Elise though... strangely drawn to them.

You know an S1 makes the most sense though.
Just not brave enough to daily one in winter.
