3. The car lacks power (at all times-after cold or hot start, doesn't matter) when you step on the gas. You can tramp completely down on the gas and it is a slow, gradual climbing of speed-especially on hills.

This sounds like it could be "limp home mode" due to a failed AMM or that the timing belt has slipped a tooth or two and the belt is not correctly timed. Or even a plugged cat converter.
