Considering the mileage it would be worth checking with the seller that the VVT Chain/actuator has been done. If not and you're considering buying the car then use this as a bargaining chip as it will very likely need done.

I wouldnt say the 6 lacks power its just a bit on the lardy side plus think of the transmission losses, have you driven a 3?

My 3 feels a fair bit quicker than my 6 did and feels alot more aggressive at putting the power down, id say its more of a drivers car tbh.
