hey Zless,
Congrats on the new Z car!
I am still having a hard time on realizing that your getting an 07 so fast. This October?? didnt the 2006's come out in March. I mean they are pumping out the 07's in less than 7 months.?.?
Anyways, so let us in on some of the newer new features than the 06! lol
What model are you getting? Man Zless I want to get an 07 now and trade up from my 04.5 !

Hey ZLESS,
I know you are going to purchase that 07 soon enough. I was kind of going through some of the forums and I know that people usually post some B.S. and some hearsay in the forums but there was this one forum post about the new 07 G. I have the quotes, but I was wondering if anyone knows anything about the new 07 Z and what the updates will be etc etc...and if these posts are false.
"Hope this information is not a repost but here it goes.
The soul of the G35 has always been its dynamic performance and at the heart of advanced drivetrain has always been its award-winning VQ35 3.5-liter V6 engine and advanced FM (Front Mid-ship) platform. Both engine and platform have been significantly enhanced for use with the 2007 G.
The VQ-series V6, which has been named one of the "Ten Best Engines" by Ward’s Auto World magazine for 12 consecutive years, now moves into its fourth generation and has been significantly rethought, with approximately 80% of major parts (except bolts, O-rings and clips) redesigned. The block features ladder frame construction for greater rigidity, crank journal and pin diameters have been increased, the block height increased by 8.4 millimeters to reduce piston side force and the engine center is now 15 millimeters lower, which also contributes to the G’s improved dynamic performance.
Other engine enhancements include the addition of standard variable exhaust cam timing (eCVTCS), a higher rev limit (increased from 6,600 rpm to 7,500 rpm) and higher compression ratio (10.6:1 versus the previous 10.3:1), asymmetric piston skirts, twin knock sensors, improved coolant flow and new Iridium spark plugs.
A new symmetric twin ram air intake system helps reduce airflow resistance by 18% and a new exhaust system design with equal length exhaust manifolds and reduced muffler exhaust pressure (25% less than the first generation G35) help improve engine breathing. Both are tuned to create authoritative harmonies, helping enhance driving pleasure."
"I've heard about the dual-intakes on the new Z. I kinda wish I wasn't forced to buy an '06 and had the convineicne of waiting to buy the '07. Dual intakes means dual pop chargers? Oh I hope... lol the sound would be amazing!"

I use a viper system on my Z... why not use a nice expensive system for an investment that you own... know what I mean?
my Clifford system in my crossfire was so powerful inside the car that it sent a dealership worker to the hospital with a concussion and an bleeding ear drum
its worth it... seriously!
