I was reading on a GM forum about the 3.0L Buick Lucerne before Holden released it's 3.0L Commodore. Pretty much the same results .ie. slower than the 3.6SIDI and generally similar economy. Everything I've heard about the 2.0L Ecoboost says the fleet Falcon will spank the fleet Commodore in grunt, drivability and economy. We'll see when it's released, of course, but I wouldn't mind placing a bet.

Oh well. Rear wheel kilowatts will kill the local industry, along with your tinkerbell AU champ. Look ahead a few years, you might see your nose.

as ive already said, the 3.0l alloytec aint bad if it spends most of its life in the suburbs and city, anything else a torqy'ier motor would be much better, its not hard to understand.
