The wife and I took our then new 2009 370 on a 3000 mile + vacation last summer and really enjoyed it. The summer before vacation we spent 7000 miles behind the wheel of our then 2003 350. So the Z's are practical to take on long mileage vacations. BTW we have been doing this for a long time. Our ages are 67 and 65 and we can pretty much drive what we want to. So the long and short of it is the Z's are great road cars also...................

ahah Im about to be 20 and my back was hurting like someone who is 67. It may have been caused by football even though I have never had this problem before and have made the drive to many times to remember.

Im not disagreeing with you on the issue that the z is a ton of fun to drive long distances, but the seats to me at least are no where near the comfort level that I have been used to on other cars over long distances.

Thank God I'm not the oldest on this site! (58 and 54) You forgot to add that not only can we afford to drive what we want, our insurance is a lot lower

Ya just gotta love "geezers" in Solid Red 370s doin' long haul trips. At least I hope so 'cuz I am one (66). I did this trip last summer - about 4,500 miles. A new adventure this summer...camping in Yosemite.
