Default RB320 ride quality vs standard Hawkeye

I'm pondering changing to an RB and want to know the ride is like. Let me know what you think - also any other opinions on owners who've followed this path from standard STI to RB would be nice too

Cheers!

The ride is totally different to the standard STi - it's slightly more compliant over bumps but feels as if it's totally hooked up. I went from a WRX with PPP to the RB and certainly have no complaints

I've been told it is much and such the same but skips over rutts a bit better when you are travelling at *ahem* speed.......

Never driven one so can't give my own verdict though.
