What Spam Cans out there would imitate the flying characteristics of a
Sonerai?

I agree with you Jim. The only certified, production airplane that I can
think of that flies anything like a Sonerai would be a CAP10B. A S2A Pitts
might be another good example (except for the power).

Sonerai.... poor man's CAP or Pitts?

When Puerto Rican barnyard pigs fly.

The question was regarding production airplanes that have handling
qualities similar to a Sonerai. Not similar performance. The control
harmony of the Sonerais I have flown along with the roll rate and
elevator power are very similar to the CAP10. I also find the ground
handling on landing to be similar. Nothing I said should have been
construed to mean that the Sonerai performs (aerobatics or otherwise)
the same as a CAP10.
