to my mind, 174hp out of 2.4 liter naturally aspirated motor with a lot of
torque is A ROCKET by any means.

Well, I guess it's because "I" haven't driven it to see what it could 
actually do (blind people can't drive, stupid law! -:).  Mama doesn't really 
put her foot into it no matter how much I want her to do it.  It must have 
quite a lot of power in reserve.  Her PT Cruiser which preceded the HHR had 
150HP out of a 2.4L DOHC 16 valve 4 cylinder with 167LbFt of torque, IIRC. 
If these engines were in lighter cars rather than pulling 3200LB around, , 
zippy would be an understatement!
