2. When gearing down, I go straight from 6th to 3rd, sometimes even second if I'm going slow enough. The only time I step down is if I misjudged what the rpms would be upon letting back out on the clutch. Like going down to 4th only to realize I had enough room to kick it in to 3rd.
3. The tS is the PP with a wing and some extra stuff. I... don't really care about it.

Accelerating on the highway was no different in the 90s then it is now and if the Geo was fine then the Twins should be far better.
If you are driving at such low revs and speed in 6th that you can safely shift into 2nd then no wonder you think the car has no power. Right gear for the right speed.
