another dc2r as daily question...

[rice_spirit]

i've already searched and gone through all the threads regarding dc2r's comfort and its viability as a daily car.

I have my eyes on a dc2r but i'm not sure if its the right car for me. after reading through a couple of threads i reckon i can live with a none-luxury and raw car in exchange for a really fun ride. however, i will often have to drive my parents and siblings around so i was just wondering how they would feel in the car? like if i dont rev the engine high and drive normally, will they be comfortable at all? or is it uncomfortable regardless because of the stiff suspension?

another question on the sound isolation, apparently you can hear your engine roar. but my parents are old and dont want me to drive a loud car. so i was wondering how loud the engine will be when i drive normally - shift at 4k or maybe even 3k rpm?

thanks in advance

A stock DC2R isn't that rough. Don't believe the hype.

I test drove a stock DC2R a couple of years ago and after getting out of my lightly modified DC5R it felt like driving a lexus.

Stock is soft, they'll think its a Corolla if you drive it sensibly.

yep, they wont notice at all pretty soft, and there mind wont be on that lol.

only people like us jump into a car and sus out what coilovers the car has how many clicks the owners turned the dampening system. lol

my dc2r is my daily, and i love it.
unless your changing at like 7000rpm, no one will hear you
like qball and hisoka said, you wont hear it. although the suspension is a bit stiffer than a corolla lol.

as these guys said...only problem i reckon is the terrible head room in the back seats!

Stock DC2R's are soft. More noisey than a Accord or Camry, but it's not bad. I would rather say the suspension is more "Firm", not "Stiff". Stiff makes it sound hardcore, which it isn't.
Best way is to test drive one for yourself, and see if it's hardcore.

Guess firm is a better choice of words.
