Default Changes for 2007

Hello all. I'm wondering if anyone has heard anything about changes for 2007. The dealership I was at the other day said the only thing they've heard is Nissan is testing and "verifying" (?) the 300HP engine for auto's.

They are offering a twin turbo model with 450HP for 2007 and some sort of hybrid with it. All the details aren't out yet.

I forgot to mention that Nissan was going to offer 22" wheels stock. Should be off the hook yo.

Can I jump on the sarcasm bandwagon too? I heard every thing will remain the same except for 14 strategically placed cup holders. Other than that, its too early to tell if any thing else will be changed. Im guessing nothing major. BEN

I heard that they are increasing it by 500 lbs, so they need the twin turbos to counter this increase in weight.

Smart speed control: If you are following a car at 70 mph and the car brakes, the 350Z will automatically brake to maintain a safe following distance.
