And frankly, that wasn't fun to me. Thrilling? Yes. But not fun.

I don't feel the need for more power to have fun, even with lots of grip. Most of my curve speeds are at or below my normal straight cruising speed, so throttle input is minimal.
something is wrong with your car then because it should have a front roll couple of over 60%
