Seriously, I was reading about the new toyota sienna minivan... being offered with an AWD drivetrain with a 3.5L 260+ hp v6... in a minivan. Sorry I just don't see the point!

Horsepower sells cars, torque wins races. (Sort of)
HP races have always been around, and will probably always exist. Limits on cars will hold back updates or worse, but sooner or later they will catch back up.

600HP Civic....
