Komodo,
I test drove the STi before I decided on the Z and don't share your opinion. I felt I had to muscle it around a corner vs. finesse it...I felt much more connected to the road with the Z. But hey, I've never driven the convertible, maybe there is a marked difference.
b.t.w. The creak you are hearing when you enter driveways, etc. is not the chassis. It is more than likely the stock rubber coil spring isolators failing. Get some urethane isolators installed and you'll be good to go.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it is the chassis. The JIC's eliminate all that stuff.
