If extra OOMPH hiding in the rafters isn't important, or if you want better than 30 mpg highway, then the 2.4's more likely to make you happy.
I think 28-30 MPG is more than acceptable, right now I own a 4 cylinder car that gets 30 MPG according to the EPA. What I don't like about the car I have now is it lacks power, load it up with 3 people and it bogs the car down. Going up hills, you have to floor it. Plus yea I like the SCAT the V6 has.
