What are the bugeye STi-RAs like to drive, are they similar to classic STi-RAs or are there significant handling differences?

Getting tempted by this one:

Fairly rare I think being the factory DCCD version (no big Brembos/ABS), anybody on here have one? Also what are the 6-speed gearboxes like, as nice as the close-ratio 5-spd in the earlier RAs? Is 6th longer for better fuel economy/cruising or did they keep a similar top and stack the ratios closer?

RA Spec-C with DCCD vs s202 for a few grand more, tough call...

Gotta be rarer too, only 400 made too.
