What the heck is a 3.5L V-6? Is that a new engine for GM? Just curious (I know little about cars).

A 3.5 Liter engine with 6 cylinders. A rather large V6 considering the Mustang comes (or used to) in a 4.0 L V8.

Just curious (I know little about cars).From what I've read about the Saturn Aura, the 3.5 is an older engine design paired, in the Aura XE, with an older four-speed tranny. The Aura XR comes with a newer design 3.6 engine and the new six-speed tranny.
If that is at all wrong then I'll surely be corrected.

3.5L refers to the combined volume of the engine's cylinders. 3.5L is about average for six cylinder intended for a mid-size sedan. DOHC engines in this size class routinely produce anywhere from 220 to 280 horsepower depending on whether they are tuned for fuel economy or performance.
I've found Honda Accords and Toyota Camrys have got to be the most boring automobiles on the road today. Well engineered, but unremarkable. The only import brands that provide some excitement, styling, and general fun without breaking the budget are Nissan and Subaru. Those two and Chevrolet if I were going to buy a truck or a sports car are the only brands I'd actually consider parting with my money over. If I were to buy a Toyota I'd be likely to go to sleep at the wheel.
