More power means heavier cars, just to keep the frames from twisting, then you endup with a car marginally faster, yet few hundred pounds more of a porker. remeber the early 90's hondas ? you'd fill them up once and drive for 2 weeks on a tank of gas. why can't they do the same thing now ?
and for the hybrids: the prius is the only one that gets decent gas mileage, but yet is marginally bigger than a civic. all the other hybrid lexuses i drove so far would get maybe 1-2 more mpg than my 175hp awd subaru.

thanks stefan haha you fag.
I really don't see the point in a hybrid suv, because it just seems like a dog chasing it's tail in that instance.
