My back is killing me...
I've got the inflatable lumbar support from the Aircraft Spruce website and it does make a big difference in the comfort level. This spring, I made the 12 hr drive to Tail of the Dragon and back with no problems at all. The 350, like my former Z's (280 & 300) are very confortable even on long road trips. And this is the opinion of somebody that can't stand to sit for more than 2 hrs anywhre else.

The only thing I have found so far that works is to take a 20oz bottle of water and put it behind my back.
Anyone else have this problem? Any solutions??

But of course, who buys a Z and drives like that?

Those things really work. I actually went back and bought the seat cushion that goes with it as well and I can use it in anywhere whether in the house or in the car. I was at the point of looking to buy new seats with lumbar support. I cannot understand why these cars don't have lumbar in them. My husband drives a C6 and it is worse.

My doctor said if the top half of my back is not touching the seat, it is the same as slouching while driving. He could be a quack but my back has never been better. I also found that having the seat in a more upright position as opposed to laying back helps not only maintain posture but gives a better feel for the cars balance.

Thanks for all the input guys!
I'll give the beach ball thing a shot first. If I can fix the problem by only spending a few bucks then that means more money for other goodies
My only problem with driving with the seat in a more upright position is that I'm a tall guy and it sucks having your head hit the headliner the whole way.
