I wanted to save and wait for the 07's, but in the same respect the price of a new one would of just totally jumped out of my reach. Im happy with my recently purchased 05

the presentation said the new vq has higher compression ratio. not a good thing for FI. At least not without building the motor...
methinks 03-06 vq will still be the engine of choice for FI enthusiasts...

This 0-60 time BS is getting out control. First it was claimed to be 1 sec faster, and now 1.5????????? I want to believe it so hard, but i just can't grasp that sort of non-sense. It's driving me nuts! Wtf they put in there, 50 Tornados? o.O I'm dumfounded o.O

No, but your somewhat on the right track, making the engine breath easier with dual intakes, upping the compression, and having equal length piping can do alot to increase the power. I believe that 1second can be in grasp. As far as the 1.5, that remains to be seen.

Check out the early reviews of the new motor on the upcoming G35 sedan - the 0-60 went way down to 5.2 secs (the weight seems to be about the same and the HP went up by 25 or so).
That's not a 1 sec drop, but if you consider drivetrain loss, it is still respectable. I'm sure the Z might make it sub 5 sec.
