If you're going to do 40% or more city driving, then definitely go with the 2.0 T for fuel economy. On the highway the Aero V6 is not bad, but around town, it can be pretty low on fuel economy, especially with short trips. When you're idling a lot, more displacement means more fuel used to get you nowhere.
On a recent long road trip, I got about 31 mpg highway with my Aero SportCombi. In the city, I get closer to 20 mpg. Not bad, but I would say a 2.0 T would get at least 10% better.
