At what point is more power not needed? If 20-30 hp keeps getting added every few years - we will be up at 400 hp before too long. Why not keep the same hp and decrease the engine size slowly so the thing is more nimble and efficient?

http://www.auto123.com/en/info/news/roadtest,view,Toyota.spy?artid=37606 This bodes well for the next-generation Camry, however, as it is slated to be built on a variation of the new Avalon's chassis architecture, and from what I've been told, feature a version of the powerful new 3.5-litre V6 in its top trim level The article is an Avalon review for a Canadian magazine. It mentions that the next generation Camry will be based on the 05 Avalon platform and will likely get the 3.5 L v6 from the Avalon. That would be awesome. Although I am sure it probably will be detuned to produce 20 less hp. Looks like the 3.3L engine will be history by the time the next generation Camry arrives. |

But why build an all new 3.0 V6 if they won't use it in camry?? 245 hp seems enough for this car and it would differenciate the Avalon and Camry even more, having 2 different engines!!

Replying to: lexi4life (Mar 15, 2005 2:44 pm) Good question especially since the upcoming IS can also be equipped with the 3.5L V6. I think the 3.0L engine probably won't last more than two model years. Isn't Lexus working on a GS 350 ? |

| Lexus already has a GS350, just not ready for anywhere outside Japan at the moment. Apparently they are tweaking it so it will pass tough emission requirements. | |
