Default 2004 sucks?

I just traded in my 2000 for a 2004 and damn I feel disappointed..
It's noticeably heavier, not as low to the ground, and its BORING AS HELL. The engine is QUIET, the suspension is SOFT, the entire thing is NOT FUN ANYMORE. And the radio still SUCKS. Especially compared to my old $2000 setup. Jesus.

Umm. Then why'd you trade?

Did you not drive the '04 first?

I am currently looking for a 02 for my uncle since he loves my 04. I have test driven a couple and even though it seems like the suspension is a little softer the 04, the 04 definitely, positively and FO SHO pulls a lot harder in every gear.
I am very happy with my 04 and the softness of the suspension won't last because I already have springs and will be ordering the yellow Konis in the next couple of weeks.
