Not unless I've missed something big. The 3.9 is the new big motor for the compact cars and only comes in the G6 GTP, the top of the line model. I haven't heard anything about improvements on the 3.9 yet.
The W-body big motor from now on is the 5.3 V8.
Anything smaller than the G6 will get the Ecotec or Ecotec */C or turbo.

Must have heard it in on some uninformed forum I came across on a random search. Prob no fact to it, I haven't been able to find anything to back it up.
The superCharger that is, the 3900 is fact

Thanks for your opinions, I suppose that if the quality from the Bonnevilles got carried over to the G6 then I guess its a worthwhile buy. Thanks! Now the next step is to step into one and take it for a test drive. Im sure she will notice a difference after our 88' Ford Taurus Rustbucket Edition has been choking up lately.

I've driven a G6 with the 3500. It'* a nice ride, with nice pickup.

My aunt just got a G6 GTP with the 3900. She likes it a lot. They can easily smoke a GTP or SSEi in stock form.
