My co-worker has a corvette and my last car was an RX8. Although the RX8 was lighter and balanced, the Z has a much better ride quality. It came with stiff runflats for gods sake and so does the vette. I don't know what the hell you've been smoking. The Corvette wasn't anything exciting either. Its quick, but hardly the best ride quality. You feel every pebble with that car.

Magnetic ride control improves ride quality but that jumps you $20k over the Z and you can buy @ focus turbos for that coin. The base 50k vette ride is crappy...
