The Elise had (almost) all of those things and weighs less than 2100 pounds. The Alfa 4C, next Miata and sister Alfa will also come in closer to 2 tons than 2 1/2.

I've seen a few reviews comparing the 3rd gen Miata to the 1st and while they love both, they admit to the 1st gen being more fun to drive.
