It will be interesting to see how this effects sprint times for the V8.

Don't care about the V6 - it's an underdone, horrible little boat anchor of a motor.

I think if holden starts marketing cyl deactivation, ford would be nuts not to point out that their engine has better economy on 6cyl than the dunnydore has on 4.. AND more power than the dunnydore running on all 6.

In short, all they need to say in an add...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Falcon has nearly 30 horsepower more than the new commodore.
Falcon gives you 5% better economy while doing it.
General Motors might go bust and have to sell or liquidate Holden.
Busting makes me feel good!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

If the new falcon really does pull ahead in both power and economy by those figures.. it has to hurt holden sales which would no doubt help Ford and the Aurion which has 200 killer wasps. (but again from memory worse economy than the falcon.)
