I would probably say yes since that is just a vehicle in a studio environment. A fast single core might be able to do it! LOL But seriously on big exterior scenes that use to take hours on a single or older dualcore, nothing is more pleasing to the eye than to see multiple buckets working away and finishing up in like 15 minutes or so

I have a quad core here that was purchased by one of my co-workers. It started as a Windows Vista machine, but due to numerous driver issues with printers, external hard drives, and palm machine, he has given up on Vista for XP. That is my task to take it back to XP, which I have just about finished with. The machine is beautiful, it's intended for video editing when it reaches the intended home. We matched it with a Nvidia 8500 512Mb graphics card and a Samsung 2Ms response monitor. I loaded a couple action games to try the graphics, as fast as I can push it the machine just sits there and yawns. I hate to give it back, but I cannot afford it either so a little catch 22 going on. So for now back to my single Pentium4 machine, which sometimes makes me yawn.
I agree with Russell on the speed issue and the pleasing sight of 4 buckets doing the renders in the screen. It looks fast enough. I use in my office dual Xeon dual core and that 4 buckets and it renders pretty fast. With 4 gb of ram i really love that configuration.
I wish if i could get my hands on the 8 dual processor 3DBOXX APEX system

I would say happy when rendering, I think a quadcore system is slower on regular applications, probably because each core is a bit slower clock speed than dual or single cores and of course since regular apps don't support multi cores, this comes into play. FYI
