You can never have too much money, too many friends, or too much horsepower.
I do a lot of highway driving and where the extra HP and torque really come into play is passing on the highway, 2 lane road etc. Three times a month I drive I95 from Phila to southern Virginia. The idiots in the USA don't know how to drive. You'd think that there was poison gas in the right lane! I can't get enough passing power. Not only that, but the 35i gets better gas mileage on the highway! 19/25 vs 19/26. THe best of both worlds.
