Have you driven a CR? You may not like it. It's precise and cuts like a knife with unlimited grip. Unfortunately, it's also really noisy, stiff, and tiny. On top of that, every douchebag on the freeway tries to race me...which gets annoying really fast. 
I almost prefer an AP1 S2000 over the CR at this point. The ricer in me still likes the torqueless F20C, and I can appreciate the luxuries in the standard S2000. |
Prefer the ap1 over a cr? That's surprising, but then again I've never driven either. I had an ap2 for 2 years and loved it. Frs is a lot more practical and livable but it definitely will be a downgrade performance wise. The trade off will be worth it for me because I like having a real roof and room for tires in the back that much; if a back seat and fixed roof is not a big deal then the pros of the frs over the s2k are slim. Although, as someone mentioned, the frs will prob be easier to control at the limit because of the front biased weight distribution (53/48). S2k's 50/50 might be better for lap times but it also adds to that snap happy feeling in the corners.
