I just got off an 800 mile road trip, the road noise didn't bug myself or the wife at all. She daily drives the Z and loves it. I use it on weekends and nights for fun. But if you start to compare it with some of the cars you have listed, they definately are better cars, but cost a lot more than the Z. Dollar for dollar you can't beat the Z. We test drove many MANY 2 seater cars, Z4's, MB's, Saturns, Vettes etc etc. With everything that came in the Z for the price we definately fell in love. That along with the fact I have owned many Datsun and Nissan products over the years with minimal complaints. In fact I have yet to have a warranty issue knock on wood.

Now all that being said I still have my eye on a Cayman R. I will probably make that my next vehicle after a new project Jeep. Of course that is a few years away.

Oh and I test drove the 6mt many times, the last time I had the 6mt for more than 2 hours. I really wanted to like it but the 7at was so much better I just couldn't get past it. You need to drive them and decide for yourself though. This is coming from a once very hard core MT kind of guy.
