I will make an assumption you've never ridden even decently-engined BMW 3 series (or 1,2,4) or anything better in terms of handling? suddenly the act of driving moves from i-have-to-get-to-that-place into wow-lets-do-more! (all within speed limits).

there is certainly some tipping point for this and after it's not worth it, and poorly-handling muscle cars leave me uninterested, but it works, it can be joy on normal roads and on track even pure adrenalin.
