I like the sound of the package, but if it is truly going to be a 280hp 'performance package' I think they'll need to be careful on pricing since that isn't that much better than a lot of competitors offer in their run of the mill sedans. If they can keep it in the low to low/mid thirties to start I think they'll be fine, but I think they'll have a hard time pushing it as a performance piece unless torque is stellar or the final horsepower numebr ends up north of 300. Then again, power numbers could be conservative at this point.

I think the 2.0T with a six speed would interest me the most if the price is right.
