You have to move up north where it's cooler
I think if I were on and off highways at 65+ mph I might feel the same? Majority of my driving is in 25-45 mph zones on curvy back roads. Even in semi-spirited driving, I rarely am pedal to the floor (at least not for very long). That tells me I don't need more power for most of my driving.
BTW by 80's and before standards, our cars are pretty quick. It's all relative. Heck when I used to own an E36 M3 I also owned an 85 RX-7 (1st gen). Fun as hell to wind out but slow. I'd get used to how fast my M3 was (which wasn't *that* fast), so I'd drive the RX-7 for a bit - when I get back into the M3 it would feel like a rocket.
