370Z Exit Strategy

The wife wants me to change out the Z for something that rides a little smoother. I'm thinking either an Infiniti G or Lexus ISC. Any other suggestions?

G's are very nice, or you can spot up a bmw 335i

The Z's suspension rides EXTREMELY smooth in my opinion. My girl usually falls asleep on a long ride, expecially on the highway.

Agree. When you're driving the car conservatively, it is quite gentle.

i have got to agree here, in addition to that, the road noise depends on the road surface you drive on (at least thats the case in my situation).... a road that is done correctly, i hear absolutely little or nothing at all.... then you drive on a road that isnt "finished" ....or done the "easy" way.... THATS when the road noise starts..

other than that, the car itself can get good MPG, road noise is to a mininum and all is good with the world

The G is due for a re-design very soon but you can get very good short-term lease deals right now.

IS350, 335, even a 2013 328 Sport line is pretty good.
