Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ultimate Cefiro" data-source="post: 4137219" data-attributes="member: 44485">1st of all, VQ30DE is really a great engine, I have 1 on 20" rims, and still can burn a bit. IF im not mistaken, while Im on 18", stock engine, around 8sec (for a car that weights about 1.5t, not bad), but incredibly high top speed (around 240km/h !!) and sweet torque (about 2000rpm for 100km/h FOR A 97 ENGINE). What WeiKee said is true, Dont just think about horsepower, the torque is another important factor to be refered. High horsepower doesnt mean anything with a good torque!! Also, due to the reliability of the engine (as most of the Ceffys out there is tend to be daily use cars), force induction is not a good choice as u might have more problems encountered later, just like the Volvos. Also, as the Ceffy is designed to be executive sedan, so normal aspirated V6 engine will gives you a smooth drive (more on comfortness) rather then sudden boost over the car.You are right, our roadtax does kill us (one of the highest roadtax country, so does the car price!!) !! In other countries (which of course, roadtax cheaper), Camry and Accord (older version) DID have 3.0L v6, moreover the latest version is somemore equipped with 3.5L V6!! for Merc E class, even the 1986 model of W124 has a range from 200E to 500E. BMWs also has 520i to 545i in those old days. The latest, E500 even the AMG E63, 550i and even M5!! The reason that our country has lower spec in our car dealer's showroom (2.4L for Camry and Accord) is because there is not much market potential for 3.0L V6 (i.e. due to our high import tax, the car tends to be more expensive, imagine an Accord 3.0L for over RM200k!! u might get a C-class!!) But you can ask Honda Malaysia or UMW to import 3.0l V6 for you which is directly CBU from Japan.just my 5 cents add 1 cent, thanks.</blockquote>
