I disagree. I <3 the S2K interior.

The thing I liked about the NB (and the NC) was that they preserve the balance between ride and handling — a lot like the old Peugeots — without losing feedback. You weren't punished with a unbearable ride if you wanted to loaf about and just cruise.
Since I haven't driven an AP2, I need to see that it can match that same sense of balance.
As far as buying one, the 3 big pluses for the NC PHRT are better ergonomics (over the NB), a more modern interior (again, compared to the NB) and the power hardtop, which I gotta say is a big plus when compared to the cost of replacing a slashed soft top.
Like I said earlier, I have to figure which roadster fits what I want. If I could keep the Integra for a DD, I wouldn't be as obsessive about this. I'd probably be more apt to go for the S2k, then...

I've ridden in one, but never driven. I don't mind a harsh ride though.

AP2 doesn't preserve the balance. if you're looking for a balance of ride and handling ap2 is the wrong car for you.

well sure, i'm not going to blame mitsu if i'm racing the car and the trans/etc goes out, but if something like a window motor or something random goes out, you're damn right i'm going to use that warranty. its just general service/parts/environment is lackluster, ESPECIALLY when compared to other marques. i've been pretty turned off bringing in the evo for random doodads and service.
