How much power is too much for the roads?
Oh...I am a music teacher and I carry about 15 3/4 size guitars...half a drum kit and some speakers in my WRX saloon and i can still dispatch the majority of overtaking situations with ease! ( I use the seatbelts on the stuff on the back seats..LOL)

I've often said to people that in many ways the faster the car you get, the slower you drive.
It's not that you actually go slower, but your inputs to achieve the same speed need to be much smoother and more considered and your risk assessment much more "pessimistic"
Drive a 450bhp+ car the same way you drive an 250bhp car in anger and it'll end in tears sooner rather than later! You have to calm right down!
In a battle between you and Sir Newton, he always eventually wins!!

I normally have them set to 25 F & R on the road. Like you I find this a good compromise between handling/comfort.
Great car BTW
