Two 4 hour sessions, and I felt fine. The Z is honestly more comfortable on long drives than any of my previous cars as well as most rental cars I'm willing to pay for. It's cheaper for my company to rent me a car for most trips, but I'd rather drive the Z, be more comfortable and pocket the mileage reimbursement. We bought the Z to drive it, and the reimbursement is a good base for the Z maintenance/mod fund.
The trip home wasn't bad despite backing off my speed a bit. Picked up a good bit of time when I found a BR-Z on the south side of Dallas and cruised with him all the way to 130 north of Austin. We found some good open road just south of Salado. Glad I didn't get the ticket there
It was funny to watch (and smell) the BR-Z every time space opened up. He was obviously downshifting a gear or two, and I had no trouble keeping up with him by just easing into the throttle in 6th lol
