But I'm going to get another Z so don't worry boys and girls.

I decided I'm going to get the '07 Z, only if it comes with the new vq35hr engine.

Also im sure there will be other minor changes that I will like

Im am for sure going to get every option I was not able to get with this Z and will be buying it in Redline for sure.

Yes I want the gt-r, but lets be honest.....we cant all afford it. Never really cared for the g35 and lets face it the supra is just a pipe dream.

But, if the new Z does not have the HR motor...I will be going with the stillen stage 2 for the rev up motor, which promises 120 + hp(we'll see)...i would love to have a turbo but in california thats just not a problem i want to deal with , especially after what happened to mark(blublrr)

So what are your thoughts...am I crazy?

 

Sounds pretty reasonable to me. What options are you going to get this time? Has Nissan posted an approximite price for the GTR?

 

I belive nissan has stated the 07 z will get the vq35hr.

 

will this time i hope to get the fatory brembos (track/gt model i suppose)
i never cared for leather but for some reason i want it now, and maybe navi...not sure bout that..

but for sure i want redline...i wanted my 06 to be red but i couldnt wait i needed a car soon.

 

I personally dont think a navi system would be that useful, then again I dont travel alot, and when I do its usually with more people in a larger vehicle.

 

yeah im a bit iffy about the navi...hopefully the Z will have a better exterior/interior accents.

 

I have the navigation, never thought id really use it. To my amazement it comes in handy and is really nice. Keeps up with your oil and oil filter replacement life and is just overall handy. Besides girls always get wet when they see a screen in your car.

 

aggie has a point, who doesnt want wet girls anyways?

 

hmm...in that case im gonna need a plastic seat cover for the passenger seat

 

seems kind of stupid to take a depreciation hit on your car for basically the same car w/ a few more horsepower. It's not like the 07 is going to run low 12s stock versus pre-07s high 13s/low 14s.

 

werent you the one who wanted to test drove a z and a stang gt and compared them to a e55 wagon and sl55 and you call me stupid?.....dude seriously i cant take you too seriously

yes im aware i will be taking a small hit...but its what i want and to be blunt its my money not yours......

ive wanted a red car since i was a kid so im gonna get it....

plus i get employee pricing with nissan so the price of the car isnt a big deal to me

 

Well I'm sorry for test driving other cars since I had a free afternoon and nothing better to do.

Next time I won't write any of my opinions so you homos don't get your panties in a wad.

 

Yea im just gonna wait unti lthe next gen Z's come out and wait a good 2-3 years til all the upcoming problems and tsbs go away

 

I heard it's not going to come out with vq35hr engine...

 

Upcoming problems? What do you know that we don't?

And there will always be TSBs....

 

What's the deal w/ the HR engine?

 

we dont know anything about the hr engine yet, we dont know if its stronger lighter or anything...

we do know it has like some 30hp more or something like that

ill make my decision when more info is available

oh and hey smart a$$
"Disrespectful Members will get banned"

anyways we dont care if you went on a test drive...but you cant compare apples to oranges...
