Anyone Notice???

As far as the acceleration times go, like you said my best guess is the various tweaks to make the car milder are the culprit. Other than that, while the Z is undoubtedly a firm ride, bordering on very firm, I just spent last weekend driving a buddy's 05 G35 coupe with I believe the sports package, and the ride was nearly identical, as well as marginally quieter than our much maligned noise levels in the Z. I think that while you can find parallels in almost every somewhat similar car in the market, the sum of all the Z's traits are fairly unique in it's price range and target demographic, and it almost makes it hard to review objectively for some reviewers.
