09 impala vs 08 altima
i have a question concerning the '09 impala.
the impala has 210hp in a 3.5L V6, getting 18/29. while the 2008 altima also has a 3.5L V6, however the altima has 270hp and gets 23/32 mpg. why is that this altima is better? or IS the altima better? i like american cars over japanese but now its getting hard to defend american when nissan is putting out these bigger better faster cars.... i guess the only thing that the impala has going for it is the $5,000 less base price.
why is it that the japanese can squeeze out more hp and better fuel efficiency than american engines of the same displacement? is it b/c they engineer better or what?
