I notice it, too, when I shift, but I shift pretty smoothly. I don't know if they notice it, but it's hilarious to me. On the inside.

My passengers are normally fearing for their life too much to care.

Wow guys thanks for the advice, I'll give that a try. Most of the time my passengers say they don't feel anything, but its annoying the hell out of me when in the corner of my eyes i see them flying back and forth, back and forth.

I'll have to try easing off the throttle which makes a lot of sense. Cuz the lunging i'm guessing is due to the sudden change in acceleration.

This thread is so funny to me. I think they should sell a head-belt to keep people from moving so much. Normally, I'm alone when I drive so I really notice it when my wife is in the car. I feel like she is doing it on purpose just to let me know she doesn't approve of me owning this car! :-) What to do...

Cheers

This is an S2000, not a Lexus. Sports car....not a luxury car. Don't worry about passenger lurches.
