Ride Stiffness

MacLean · 05-15-2012, 11:53 AM

I like my Nismo & as everyone has stated you will feel everything on the road. The Nismo is not going to ride like a Cadillac or sound like a Mercedes inside. My mom (is 55) who has been in the car twice & said it is like being in a plane.....it is noisy & bumpy.

I think the quality of the roads in your area is the biggest determining factor. I've had 2 camrys and 1 corolla since 94 and I was not expecting the stiffness of the Nismo. On some freeways, its smooth as butter. But some really crappy roads make you want to hate life. Just going over a manhole can be unpleasant but the awesomeness of the Nismo outweighs a lot of it.
