Find a Mag that you consistently read, and consistently agree with their reviews. I tend to agree with most of the opinions of Car and Driver over the years on the cars they reviewed and I have either driven or owned. So I am going to agree or listen to, them.

You all are on your own...

Ahhhh..... 0-60 for V6 around 5.9 - I can live with that! Seems every reviewer is really impressed with the V6.

We recorded a 0-to-60-mph sprint of just 5.9 sec and a quarter mile of 14.4 sec at 98.0 mph. Impressive? Oh yeah. And even more so when you consider that this powertrain is rated at 17/26 city/highway mpg.


Wearing conventional brakes and weighing nearly the same, both V-6 cars recorded superb stopping numbers, needing just 106 ft (auto) and 107 (manual) to claw to a halt from 60 mph. Handling prowess is also excellent, with 0.93 g of max lat on tap.
