Default S2000 vs. Hyundai Accent

My S is in the shop for a few days to repaint my bumper some idiot damaged (hit & run )

Driving home yesterday in the Hyundai rental I tried to accelerate then trail-brake through a hard turn to feel a little back-end slide then feather the throttle. Expecting the usual rush of adrenaline I was sorely dissapointed: felt like I was steering a snow plow, and with the body roll it felt like I was on a boat...and no torque at throttle!

I miss my S

^^ Actually, I've heard it was quite good for a first gen car. The 2.0 turbo makes it a cheap and affordable mod car with great potential.
