Another thought. Nobody ever wanted to drive my 1.6L non-turbo diesel mainly because it felt like you're dragging around a boat anchor. If I get a fast, new, zippy car then everyone is going to want to give it a spin when they can. But if it also feels like it's dragging around a boat anchor I'll be it's only driver, at least in theory.
