Ambition is more important then aircraft type.
Depends what you want to do, I have every respect for someone who tours Europe in a C150 but it is certainly not what I want to do in my flying - personally I want something I can turn upside down, ideally two up (yes the 150 Aerobat can do that but it is not one I enjoy greatly) and when I go somewhere I do not want to spend hours getting there. I have no problem with people who want to fly spamcans, just surprised that, when there are aircraft around that are SOOO much nicer to fly, how few in my area seem to be interested!
