That has GOT to be some serious culture shock!! 645hp to 146??
And speaking of culture shock, SC to Hawaii?? Man, talk about a life changing event. Considering what I've heard abouth cost of living in Hawaii though, the CX-3 will be a money saver.

the 645 is WHP (flywheel is about 735 to have a more accurate comparison to the 146)...so YES, MAJOR shock! hahahahaha

Yes, I gathered that. But I figured when you're dealing with that much of a difference, what's 100hp or so? But I'd also bet a huge savings at the fuel tank too.
Why the big change? I mean a muscle car to one of the smallest CUV's on the market is about as extreme as one could get, automotively speaking.

Definitely saving on fuel! Had the car a week or so and still on same tank with 1/4 tank left LOL I'm used to filling up every 3 days in the Camaro.

Moving to Hawaii in a few months..just a much better car for there for MPG, traffic(the auto vs 6spd in camaro), the high salt water content, being able to park on the beach and in the grassy areas that I'll be able to drive on....and theft is huge there from what I hear, especially with nice cars.

didn't want my baby destroyed, rather sell her
