Been seeing these commercials for the Mazda Millenia S over and over again, so I went to the Mazda Webpage to find out what this Miller Cycle Engine is and how a V6 can act like a V8. All the web page said was a Millar Cycle Engine is a V6 that gives you the performance of a V8 with out the fuel penalties. (I know a couple of V8's that get better Gas Milage then that engine.)And I have also seen V6's that get better performance numbers as well as Gas Milage that this Millar Cycle Engine. I can say it is not the Wankle Rotor design that Mazda use to use, wish that they would bring that Engine back, it gave you more HP per Liter then any Normally aspired engine. I would really like to know what makes a V6 that produces around 210 HP (off the top of my head) compairable to a V8 that produces close to 300 hp, unless they are compairing it to those SUV's that use V8's with 200 hp engines and gobs of torque. <br>And I noticed something yesterday as I was getting into my car to head home from work, this has to do with how we all complain sometimes about the small right hand mirrors in our cars, well I saw a Millenia and its right handside mirror is even smaller then the A4's. I stop my complaining. And Plus, after 5 months with the A4, I think I get more information when I glance at that mirror, then I did with a larger mirror. I have no idea why, but that is what I think, because I can see more with it. Strange.<br>
