Ok... so how fast would Bryce render with one of these??

No idea, but it should be a lot faster than it does now.
Fantastic!
And a beautiful car, too.

You mean you guys don't have one of these yet? I've had mine for months.

I'm sure enough of us are already 1/8 of the way there. (I know I've got a quad core now.) But the particular scene in the video didn't look too taxing. (Model + HDRI + ambient lighting. And if the lighting was already precalculated with an irradience or photon map... Then it looks more impressive than it is.) At least from appearances it looks like something that could be done in under 10-15 minutes on a decent PC. (Not sure if Bryce is that fast yet, but Carrara or Blender should get that car scene done at similar quality.)
What I'm more curious about is how much advantage that processing power would have against an evil task like a scene with multiple lights, caustics, and atmospherics or SSS. Would it be faster on a linear scale or a geometric one?
