with the way gas is going. I'll get a 2.0T. Manufacturers keep creeping higher in the liters dept instead of getting more hp from the same literage. Not exactly in the "green" spirit.

VW/Audi's 6 cyl has gone from 2.8/3.0/3.2
What's next, 3.4/3.6...

I've seen Nissans with 3.6 V6's. And I think there is a GM 3.8 V6. They just suck more gas for modest hp gains.

Sadly, we as consumers are also to blame, since we buy them. Although, we only buy from the options given.

A small 6cyl with twin turbo would be good to have return. I don't know what gas mileage the 2.7T's get.

I don't "need" 3.0L for a daily driver. I chose it because I was buying used, wanted an Avant and this clean example was local, so I boguht it.

Increasing HP on a smaller displacememnt motor wouldn't help the mileage either.

I love being that guy who gets hybrid-like (not Prius) mpg without the whole driving a hybrid thing

Try paying a Pound a litre = $120 to fill up!

I can't say i am really concerned about the fuel economy. Gas is still cheap enough.

2.7t is reasonable on gas. Not exactly economical, but really not too bad.

They're really surprised when I tell them it's better than stock.
