I did feel a pretty vast difference in handling (the FRS being better, obviously)
As far as interior goes, someone mentionned that FRS>>RSX .. I disagree. For a 10+ year old car, some of it feels better as far as quality goes. (wtf cupholders?)
The RSX is much more versatile too, being a hatch.
That being said, I am looking to sell my type-s and going with an frs/brz, so I guess all in all, RWD>FWD.

i agree with you-- i think the rsx had a great, simple interior that was well put together considering it was a mid 20k car (had an 03 type s). sitting in an FRS it definitely felt like it was lacking; the brz limited interior's amenities definitely make a big difference.
i/h/e rsx-s feels a lot different than stock... i know it felt totally different when i parted out and drove the rsx around stock before selling. i do miss it sometimes.
in the end though the frs/brz just feels more fun to drive to me
