Well if you measure fun by how hard your right foot presses for how long and how you have to drive the car and not just get tugged along by a big displacement, then my 2.5 was more fun than my 3.2 even though, by measurements, the 3.2 was better.

My 3 prior roadsters were all less than 100HP (1.3, 1.6, 1.6) cars so my 2.5's 200HP felt more than adequate. I drove the Alfas/914 harder than any of my Boxsters.

The Spec Boxster race cars are only 2.5s, BTW.

Just a different way of looking at things.
