Even though those cars don't have high HP, they deliver a different feel, and a sporty one at that.
They feel quick and nimble and i am willing to bet the BRZ feels the same way.
Those cars don't need HP for fun, they offer a unique experience imo.

You're right... but in that respect you are completely omitting that the Z also gives a unique driving experience. Even moreso than the BRZ/FRS... why I say that? Well let's see how many cars can offer that experience? FRS, BRZ, Miata,mini cooper, and used cars like the S2k, Rx8 and MR2.
In the Z's class, there's only the Z or a new or used cayman. That's it. Riding on rails and nimble handling is enormous fun. But having a 10% reduction in handling on the Z and a 50% power advantage makes for a more interesting car all around. The Z is more versatile in its useage in the sports arena. Though it may a jack of all and master of none. The Z's cards come close enough that a great driver can always maneuver around the Z's handicaps.
