Following the approach of Bryant we study the intrinsic torsion of a
SU(3)-manifold deriving a number of formulae for the Ricci and the scalar
curvature in terms of torsion forms. As a consequence we prove that in some
special cases the Einstein condition forces the vanishing of the intrinsic
torsion.
