Max power from a 4.0 Litre engine

[AWD Chaser]

Dude, you try towing a heavy as trailer load (caravan or horse float or such) in the Falcon - 383Nm @ 2500rpm - thats almost max torque taking off (almost but not quite) which also makes it great for towing up hills too..

whereas the Lexus is250 producing 252Nm @ 4800rpm mean you have to really wind up the car to get this max output going - lol love to see a comparison of the two doing a hill start with a caravan - lol :

But as with any car, they all (as previously mentioned) have their target audiance.

The Lexus isn't targeted for the Aus. Market, or even designed for it, thats where Ford Aus. have their competative edge (sometimes).

(BTW - the Lexus IS250 needs 95RON or higher any ways - higher costs yet)

If you want a high power output car, buy one, if you want a car that can pull 5 ppl, a full tank of fuel, luggage and a big *** trailer, get a falcon... (or other inferior brand... god forbid).

If Ford wanted their I6 4.0L to produce more then what it does now, they could do it... (What a day that would be _ )

I might be wrong with the above information anyway so please don't hound me
