been there, done that) while seeing a nice sunny landscape (unlike
Maine in winter I might add) in a nice car (1998 Stratus 2.5V6, slighly
modified to about 180HP) was kind of thrilling.
Must be something people in Texas experience every day, but for me,
it was exiting. Doing a 1450 meters (4500 feet) mountain pass
with 110 km/hr (70mph) up and down on cruisecontrol was thrilling as
well.

Re: where's the THRILL in driving?
I'll try to give a somewhat serious answer here.. somewhat..
I own a 1990 535i (BMW) - and most would recognize this car as one of the
top 10 - up until at least a few years ago when I cared about this.. today,
there may be much better cars, knocking it into the top 20?? I also own a
Volvo T6 (2000), and it's pretty fast, with good acceleration - does not
corner well, but it has it's place on the road. Not long ago I bought a 2000
VR6 - which my daughter drives. As I don't drive this car much, I forget how
nice it is. We test drove many, and the power to weight ratio is amazing.
It's a fairly light car - based on the 535 and Volvo, with instant
acceleration - I mean you move the accelerator 1/8 of an inch, and you feel
the response - faster or slower. You do not have to drive this car fast, and
have heart pumping close calls, to appreciate the car. Point is, if you want
to go from 60-90, it will do it quickly, and it handles well - and for
everyday driving, the response / handling is great.
