Dan has limited experience with Hondas. He wouldn't know a thing.
I have an AP2. I find the steering to be very responsive. It does have good feedback, but it is muted. At the limit I am definitely relying on feedback in my buttocks, legs, feet, ears, eyes, more than my hands (except for when I reach over and grab one of six gorgeous, silky smooth gears

).
Regardless, the car is a rush of feedback even though it might not have as much from the wheel.
