This is what I've been saying for a long time now.
LGX V6, with cylinder deactivation (as you said....Buick concept car), + 8 speed transmission + lighter weight could equal 32mpg or better highway. I don't see why not.
Give the sucker a good 330 - 340 HP in the highest tune V6 for the fun, but the cylinder deactivation for the highway when you want efficiency.
I'm in.
