I don't have a Z, although I'm considering it...there are few things more annoying than buying a new car that turns out to be a rattletrap. My first new car was a '91 T-Bird that had tons of rattles and squeaks in the crummy plastic dash and door panels. It took me a year, but I eventually found and fixed most of them. But that car left me with a bias against Fords ever since, fairly or not. In comparison my two 4th gen F-bodies had surprisingly few rattles that were pretty easy to fix. My GTO is solid except for an occasional squeak from the driver's seat (knock on wood).
I was hoping Nissan would really get a handle on rattles & squeaks, but it seems like even the Infiniti g-series has some. Since performance cars have tight suspensions and wide tires, the cabin gets more vibration so it's understandable to some extent.
