Hopefully some of the more knowledgeable members will chime in soon but my first thought is maybe a plugged up catalytic convertor .
I don't know much about the V-6 cars but I've had a plugged cat cause those symptoms on other cars.

Fuel pump/injector(s) failing or ICM/Coil failing would be my starting points.
Check fuel pressure and you can remove the ICM and have a parts store test it if they have the equipment (and know how to use it).
If cat is clogged you'll get a rotten egg smell and it'll usually glow after the cars been running for a while.
