That's not impressive at all. Time it. It took 16.5 seconds to get to 90. My Alero does that with a pushrod 3.4 and an automatic.

I agree. The new SHO is not meant to be sporty. It is meant to be a big but still quick semi-luxury car, which is why they compare it to Audi in their commercials. I don't know why some people are thinking of it as a track car. No one looking for that type of car is going to buy a 4500 lb FWD-based full size sedan. Just ask Nissan how their FWD, 4-door "sports car" Maxima has panned out for them.
