So I don’t know quite as much about suspension on cars as others here, but I’d say you can have either performance or comfort; not both. When my 370 was stock, it was more on the comfort side. Though performance wise I’d say it was decent. I now have ARK coilovers which made it a lot more stiff. I can feel pretty much every bump I hit, but it’s not that bad. The only time it really feels stuff is if I hit a decent size bump or hole in the road. Handling and performance wise it’s great, my front end won’t dip at all if I slam on the brakes and it stays flat when I turn.
Though I’ll say this too, like someone mentioned in the thread; you could go for a Lexus. I’ve driven a Lexus RC and it was nice, but overpriced. If you have the extra money, you could get a new RC with all wheel drive and drop a supercharger in it. You’ll have some speed, performance and comfort. But it’ll probably run you a good $80K plus total. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

People also need to stop saying this because YOU CAN. My Annex coilovers even though they are way more aggressive than stock at 14k front and 10k rear for the spring rate, it's more comfortable than stock and I was looking for more performance and came to terms that I'll have to sacrifice comfort. Let's just say I was pleasantly surprised to not have my teeth fall out when going over the same rough roads I use to brace for back when I had my stock suspension. It's the same with the KW coilovers or the Powertrix coilovers (with the swift spring upgrade). Now I'm going to upgrade my seat because the stock seats are bad for your back and I need a seat to hold my head in place because my neck hurts from the higher cornering speeds now lol

Idk if it's from height but I'm 6'3" 185, I'm built like a twig lol. I try to properly make the bottom front of the seat be at the highest point, push my bottom as far back into the seat as possible and push my head back into the headrest with both hands on the wheel with my wrists being able to go over the steering wheel. My lower back still starts to hurt after an hour or two of driving and I've never had this problem when I had my Z33 or M3. I do have a desk job which is why I do squats and hypertensions so I don't end up hobbling around like quasimodo like most people with desk jobs lol.
I even drove my Z33 cross country from Maine to San Diego. I think the driver seat design of the Z34 is just not that good.
