Airbag tech has come a long way. I think there are some pretty good handling cars using air ride technology. I don't know about THAT particular setup though. I think that one is primarily for show.

Reason why not many are riding on these? Infiniti went to GREAT LENGTHS to develope a suspension to go head to head with the best in the business (ie.. BMW). So not many are going to mess with the suspension with fundamental changes to ruin the handling.

If you are just looking for a show car w/ 22s and an air ride, the G I guess might look good. But IMHO, it's a shame to take out one of the MAIN aspects of owning one. That being handling capabilities.

if i was going to go with air, it wouldnt be on bags, i would use cylinders to retain some ride quality. While they cant go as low, they also provide for less maintenance being required
