Has it been confirmed that the 2007 autos will have the 300hp engine like the 6speed? One or two people replied to my other thread and said that they would be changing it. If they are, do you guys have any links/sources to confirm this? I did a search on here, but didn’t' find anything. I'll hold out until this Fall if this is the case.

 

No way to confirm it this early, but that will be the likely offering.

We know nothing...seriously!

Look for news about 2007's in June/July

 

Alright, thanks guys.

 

Whats the primary reason they haven't done it already?

 

Every major automotive magazine (Car & Driver, Road & Track, Motor Trend, Autombile, etc.) is reporting that the 300hp engine will be available in the automatic models in 2007.

 

300hp isn't enought to make all the 2003-2006 Z owners to get one now just because it is 300hp. Now if the Z are making 330hp or more that might be worth the jump.

TY!

 

yesssssssssss, an extra 30hp and take a 15,000 hit, that's really worth it.

 

how about we get a new generation Z finally, haha, that would make many of us happier--except for the newly purchased 06 owners of course

 

Is the new 300hp AT going to have less torque like the 300hp MT? If so, I would rather keep the old engine. If given a choice I would take more torque over more horsepower.

 

Correct. I like my 287hp motor.

 

I disagree, but not completely. If given a choice, I would take more torque AND more horsepower AND 300+lbs lighter!!!

 

well thats possible our cars are nearly at 300hp stock.
