I have nothing to compare (914 35 years ago) my 02 S to in terms of true sports cars. I'm only a little over a year into mine (64k miles - daily 10k/ year). I can say that the more I drive it, the harder I drive the better it runs.
Drive it in stop and go for 10-15 miles and the next day it hates me. So I have to go find some roads to get into the mid 6k RPMs and we are happy again.
This car is a double edge sword
I can't wait to drive it, can't get enough while driving it - get depressed when my drive is over and I have to turn the ignition off

It's a common phrase "you can never have enough HP" but what this little 3.2 delivers when it delivers it works on every level I could expect. I'm convinced that I have not really pushing the potential of this motor. I've experienced short glimpses but then I get pre-occupied looking around for flashing lights, and the moment is lost.
