The thing I like most over the other cars is the maneuverability on the highway. Where sheer muscle power may be nice for merging or passing the ability to pop in and out of lanes (and avoid danger) is a treat. My 08 GTS had loads of speed but passing a truck was always a study in abject terror! This was mostly due to the high speed handling deficiencies and aerodynamics of a sedan that let the truck slipstream grab you right at the worst moments.

Yeah I know what you mean. Something about the size, seating position and agility of these cars makes them feel like an extension of the self. Reminds me of Mazda's philosophy for the Miata - "jinba ittai". Horse and rider are one.
