I test drove an 04 today, i love the exterior, and the new console. i don't really like the steering wheel or the gauges. I can definitely feel a little more power in lower gears, but when on the freeway i wasn't very impressed.. i feel like my s2k is faster than the 04's on the freeway. i still think the older models are a little more fun to drive, but maybe because i didn't drive the car too hard. It was pretty cool though, if you haven't driven the 04's you should, it's pretty nice. I'm starting to really like the tan interior on the gpw's. looks very clean.
