But if you are a big fan of a soft comfortable ride, the nismo won't be your best option with crappy roads. The ride in a nismo is noticeably harsher compared to a sport package or regular z.
True, but I am sure you guys have gone for a ride or driven acar that is a lot more harsh than a NISMO Z. I was surprised at how comfy it was compaired to my S13.

Have any of you guys driven over a speed bump yet? If you have did you guys make it? or did you guys have to drive in from an angle?

I live in an apartment, with a garage , but lots of speed bumps. the tallest one is maybe I don't know 4", something like that, it's big. The Nismo has no problem going over it. I have never just driven straight over it though. Usually go at a slight angle, it's natural to me, I have always driven low cars, the Nismo is hardly low compared to what I normally have.

your right. my lowered IS300 dragged its belly everywhere. the nismo feels like a 4X4!

I park my nismo outside. Figure where ever I go its going to be outside anyways. Would luv to put it in the garage would help having to clean it so much but significant other won't let me.

I park outside. I'd rather have something covered, but as others have said it's still just a car and it is my daily driver.
