No doubt that those of us who frequent boards like this pay attention to 300 HP vs. 210 HP.
But I think a lot of buyers of the base versions of these cars would be more than happy with 200 HP, and might actually be frightened away by 300 HP. I sometimes wonder if Chevy isn't shooting itself in the foot by making the V6 so powerful. Guys (like me) who might otherwise have purchased the far more profitable V8 will be happy with the V6 at 300 HP. And the V6 has so much good stuff at it's price point that I'd be shocked if Chevy will make a dime on them. Good for us. Not so good for Chevy.
