687 km or 429 miles non-stop. Continued for approx 300 more km.
Heading to Whistler in July. Looking forward to #1 rated highway for motorcycles in BC. I am sure the Z will be right at home on all the twistys.

Ogden, UT to Topeka, KS. About 1,080 mi. About 17 hours including stops for gas (oh, and stops for me as well when I filled up the car).
Actually very comfortable, and this is coming from a guy who normally can't sit in a car for long periods due to an injury from an auto accident.

OKC to Houston and back. About 450 miles each way. Made the round trip 3 times. No problems with the car. No cruise control. Never got uncomfortable. I've driven 50 hours straight before... with the exception of pulling over for a 1 hour nap at the 20 hour mark (somehow stayed up and drove constantly for 30 hours after the nap).... in another car though.

Last year's road trip clocked in at 7500 miles: Bay Area - Virginia along US-50. Down to Atlanta, then headed back.
This year's road trip is mapping out at 12,000.
Bay Area - Florida (with a stops in the Nat Parks of Utah) - Virginia - Maine - Seattle - Home. I leave in just over a week.
This year's road trip is mapping out at 12,000.

Denver to Chicago, back to Denver, to Sacramento then to Monterey, CA......and back to Denver.
Experience vastly differently pavements, weather (Sunny to snowy). Seats were very comfortable and curise control was a blessing. Most importantly, the dead pedal was in a perfect spot to rest the feet and use as leverage to adjust seating position.
The excellent handling of the car on cruise control at 90mph put me at ease to where I can relax my mind and enjoy the sights.

Drove from London to Istanbul and back (c. 5000 miles); but it did take a few days, and we did sleep in hotels. The drip did span two continents though.
