Just to pause on transmissions; I prefer the stick shift because it lets me make a selection and experience the results. It's not faster or more efficient or easier, it just lets me be true to my nature.

Engine size, my 230 has more power than I would have given it. It works just fine and I don't think a change either up or down is worth considering at this point. It's not broken. But to a guy with a history of much slower cars, this is not ideal.

Not ideal for me but the best choice at the time. It was designed for a purpose and that is 'to sell profitably'. The market believes that more power is better. I get it and I am ok with it, I just see it differently.
