Has anyone noticed that the ride is much more comfortable when there is a passenger in the right front seat. This difference will only really be noticed when you travell on bad roads. When driving alone I feel like those teenage Civic drivers who have done a drop job on their suspension.

My weight (230lbs) is a big factor in causing this. I'm 7.5% of the cars weight causing it to be unbalanced too much to the left. This could be why different reviewers have wide ranging opinions on the comfort of the car.

 

I don't notice a difference and I way about 10lbs less than you. But it also could be that I don't carry passengers very often.

 

I noticed a choppy ride due to road conditions. I-294 near O'Hare in Chicago felt pretty choppy. Most other roads are fine alone or with passenger(s). I weigh 157.
