OK, here's something just as strange. I just read another "review" of the W204 in a local rag and it had the
exact same torque numbers as the Toronto Star article. Weird. Here's the link.

Also, it has the torque rating for the 3.0 litre base engine at
300lb-ft.
Do these jounalists have the wrong numbers? or are we in for a surprise?
I think that the jounalists are wrong. Wishful thinking tho
Also, I haven't heard from the Toronto Star journalist yet, but I will say that he's been in the car business for over 20 years and is a respected automobile journalist.
