That's a pretty nice advantage to have over the Si. I remember when they brought those dampers to the Si people were really liked them.

"The adaptive dampers that were standard on the previous Si aren't offered on this car. That equipment is instead reserved for the new Integra A-Spec, which is essentially an Acura-badged Civic Si with leather seats. Here, there's no comfort mode for our aging backs and growing bums."

I read on a few forums that people didn't use them much before it was just two settings, and the firm setting was too firm. If you're gonna do adaptive dampers, I think it's good to have three modes...an every day mode, a mode for bombed out roads, and then a sport mode for when you feel frisky. Just two really loses out.That's a pretty nice advantage to have over the Si. I remember when they brought those dampers to the Si people were really liked them.
