Default My RSX Goes "Bumpy" in the Night

Is it my imagination, or does the RSX (base model) have a stiffer ride than the old GSR's. I had a GSR, and recently purchased a new '03 RSX. Love the refinement they did to the Integra's successor, great right off the lot. Somehow, I remember the GSR having a smoother ride down the highway, and feeling fewer bumps in the road.
Especially noticeable when the asphalt has uneven pits or sink spots from lots of heavy traffic/heat/rain. The dam DOT won't fix the roads around here.
I noticed they eliminated the double wishbone suspension, opting for a regular strut/spring setup. Does anyone know why they didn't pick up the dbl wishbone setup for the RSX?
In any event, the RSX sure handles better off the showroom floor than the GSR. I lOVE the Recaro-designed front seats!

Thanks.
