I like my 2.7 but either should be good for you.

That said, my observation is that there's more 2.3 drivers who prefer to always be in sport mode for drivability, and more 2.7 drivers who think sport mode is a little much.
Good point. I'm a 2.3er and yep I love Sport mode

I'm in Normal or Tow.

I rarely, rarely go WOT. Excess speed comes on very quickly with my lowly 2.3. Gas is expensive enough that I try to burn less of it.
