Honda softened the rear end and stiffened the front to help keep the inside rear wheel planted in sweepers close to the limit. This was a problem on earlier models used in auto-x and caused many a pulled hair. The ap2's extra torque, while being a small difference on paper, really increases driveability around town and adds significant oomph exiting a high speed corner. MOST comparison reviews I've read give shorter lap times to the ap2. I personally drove both before buying mine. I have NOT driven both on the track. I admit the fact that my wife drives it whenever she's not hauling kids played heavily in the decision to buy the 2007, it really is easier to drive, hear yourself think, live with in general.) That's my .02.
