And what evidence do ya have to support this?

I'm not hating on you or any 6th Gen... I just think that a statement like yours warrants some evidence... because from what I've seen... stock 5.5th and 6th Gens run around mid to high 14s trapping around 95. I've never seen anything that suggests to me that one is clearly faster than the other...

The number one thing is the fact that the SE Auto in 2003 came only available as a 4 speed, 10 less hp and less torque are what puts the 6th gen ahead. I am the owner of an automatic maxima, and did not buy the SL to avoid the sluggish gearbox found on all pre- 6th gen auto maxis . Im also not using my car for drag races, this all started when Larro thought there was no justification for the price of the 6th gen and that it was a dog or something. Believe me, I wish I had the money, but an M5 or E55 just isnt in the cards right now lol
