Of course he (whoever you're referring to) had fun! Being first at the finish line is, viscerally, way more fun than being second. And for that reason, you're not going to win the debate by bringing up "fun."
To me, the 6 spd is, today, less about fun and, more about rebellion, non conformity, control and those kinds of things. The same kinds of things which motivated this character from the movie American Graffiti.
Agree- fun is subjective. Great pic.
