Not a huge difference but it depends on how you drive. A heavy foot changes everything, of course. My compressor car will get 31-33 mpg if I baby it at 65 mph. The V-6 car can probably get a bit less. I had the V6 as a loaner and if I had to do it over again, would get the V6. Just my own personal preference for a few reasons. I also like the seven speed trans. too.
