Manual 3.0 got very short gearing and almost as fast as old V8 4.4 auto. However it tops at 128 mph. Last week I had to let go at 125 few times and let MB 200k and BMW 530 Diesel drivers pass me on a highway. From the dig 3.0 manual is a good competitor to many SUVs. From my personal experience: RX300, Yukon 5.7, Toaureg 3.2, Allroad 2.5 D all were left in dust
