    yes, 3.7L v6 producing 305hp/280tq, and claiming 31mpg on the highway.

    there are plenty of manufacturers doing this... I'm just saying it is impressive. This car runs mid-13s in the quarter, too.

    Well the Lexus gets 31 on the highway - if you work at it ..
    28-29 pretty easy
    25 in mixed driving
    Mine has the extra feature of recalled valve springs

    one does have to admit that this is really pretty impressive. this is way better than the prior years V6 and really better than the V8 as well, for less money.. I would wait a year or so and then start thinking turbo for that extra umpphhh when you need it and be able to keep the mpg.
