"When is enough too much." 
That's a brain twister for sure. 
I've heard things like "sometimes less is more." But, "enough being too much" is enough to be too much for my mind to fathom. I'll try to help the phrase stick though. I think that enough is too much on the street or strip when there is no way to use each gear effectively--ignoring top-speed-in-gear issues. Gotcha! Your turn at bat.

I'll help you save a little face. The 3/06 C&D has an article on the Maybach: "2007 Maybach: If It's true that more is better, then too much is just right." So, too much must be enough. But, still, does that mean enough, or just right, can be too much? I concede; I quess so; it must be a sign of the times.
