Is there a modern 914, Wondering if there is a 21st century equivalent Options

[worn]

I have been wondering a lot lately if there is an equivalent of a light weight sports car like a 914 made for today’s drivers. The 914 seems to have been focused on driving, rather than comfort: my 61 Falcon was no less comfortable or optioned. I know they have to pass safety and emissions. A toybaru?

718 Cayman.

Least expensive modern Porsche.
2.0 four cylinder boxer engine (it is turboed).
The purists turned their collective noses up at it when it came out - wasn't a real Porsche, didn't sound like a six (did they know it wasn't a six?).
Mid engine, wheels at the corners, discs all around, no place to put your pocket book.
Noisy inside because the engine in a way is inside the cabin and right behind you.
Two trunks.
MT available.
Difficult for an old man to get in/out.
Gets a lot of attention, and is faster than most of the preceding generation Boxster/Caymans. 300 hp, 20 lbs of boost. 0-60 in the 4.7 - 4.9 range.

On the other hand, it is not a targa, doesn't rust, and weighs around 3000 lbs.
Incredibly complex, takes over an hour just to get the engine cover off. For example, the fuel pump is thee phase AC.

The MR2 and Spyder were great cars, my son had one. Unfortunately, like the S2000, they don't make them any more
