Is so, can you email me at bigbadboss101@yahoo.com? Do that to avoid unnecessary discussions.

I like to know:

- Is the interior "fit" better in the gen 5?
- Can you confirm gen 5 is slower off the line, and catch
up at high end?
- How do you compare the handling/ride of the two?
- Reliability differences?
- You opinion on the looks
- Roominess, pretty close?
- Any other pros and cons of the two gens?

I have a 99SE, and am curious about 2002, but want opionion on 2001.

Thanks

I own them both and they both have their advantages and disadvantages. Just browse through the site and you will find plenty on that topic.

I have access to both and I hope replying here will work for you.

Yes
Never really tried racing
5th gen is nicer with GC's... less bumpy
Both alright
I like both
5th gen is way bigger
As MONTE 01&97 SE said, both have their ups and downs.
