I guess it depends on what you're comparing the engine against.

I test drove a '07 Toyota SE today, and while I love the comparative
boatload of features you get for the money with the Toyota SE, the
Honda K24A4 has the persona of a caged beast compared to the 4-cyl
Toyota 2AZFE.

I know there's only eight horsepower difference between the two, but for
some reason I kept thinking "putter-putter-putter" while I was driving
the Toyota.
