You don't want your sports car to float like a Cadillac. Good handling means a stiffer suspension overall. To be honest the Camaro rides pretty well for a car that handles as good as is does.

Two different cars, two different applications.
+1. The suspension between the two are on opposite sides. One designed for smooth rides, and the other helps you turn corners at 50+ MPH

OK, I'll get flamed for saying this here, but we have a fully loaded 16 2LZ Premium Malibu with absolutely every option. Also have a 2SS 16 Camaro. I prefer the Malibu for most daily driving. I prefer the Camaro only when I take it to the track. The 2.0 turbo has more than enough power for the street and passing other cars.

No shame in that. Malibu would definitely be a much smoother ride to drive on a daily basis. Just cannot drive it bat shit crazy like you would the Camaro lol

If you want both ride quality and performance handling, you need to pony up the extra bucks to get a V-series Cadillac.

I don't think you can get a MUCH better ride than my 1999 Buick Lesebra. But going around a corner just a little too fast and you feel like the body is going to slide off of the chassis.

1. You don't have MRC so your ride is set somewhere between sporty and comfort...call it 70% towards sporty.

2. You own a Camaro and that is a Malibu...do you REALLY think that a Camaro should ride anywhere near as smooth as a Malibu especially without MRC?!

The MagRide is seriosly smooth in Touring mode ,but probably not sedan smooth even though my wife feels like we are going really slow on the freeway now with this car since the ride is freaking nice
