edit: I'm also surprised to learn that the 370 is only about an inch wider than the 350. It looks much wider to me. I've got to get my eyes checked...

The wheelbase of the 370 is 4" shorter than the 350, so that probably contributes to the 350 appearing much narrower.

Thats why I say the vette is just as much a DD as the Z. Even more so to me as I think the vette has a smoother ride in all.
