You're saying that the 3800 isn't a freeway engine? Yeah, they have scads of pick-up off the line, but I can also do 80mph at 2300rpm all damn day.
Or do you mean that the 3.6 is lacking on the bottom end?

Ah.
Oh well, I'm not buying the Buick anyways, I'm waitng to see if the 3.9 is going to be worth the money for a G6. Either that or GTP Comp G.
Of course, that'll be a second car, I'm not giving up on my Bonnie yet!

I'm not rippin on the 3800, I'm just saying with it'* overhead cams, the 3.6 has a lot of upper rpm power. That'* just how they are designed. I've seen those Caddy SRX with the OHC V6 absolutely fly on the freeway.

Thats why a 275HP GXP pulls away from L67'* on the highway

The Northstar would get stomped by a */C SII 3800.. if they both have 300,000 miles on the original engine/tranny.
