Exactly. Don't get me wrong I loved my 197 cup and the recaros, but buying again now would 100% be standard seats and suspension. Far more comfortable for the use it gets, and perfectly good for the odd B road blast.
Have a look at the rear springs, easy done looking from back, if they are black they are standard or eibach prolines, so you will need to look closer for the eibach logo or two coloured paint marks.
Edit: 'non-sport' springs won't fit a 172, cup or not.
Just seems more eager to rev than the 197 did. 197 loved revs, this seems to want to get through them faster.
Edit: oh and def has more torque, graph to prove it.

Typically the fuel gauge has been fine untill you just mentioned it (am sat in car waiting for the wife). Bonus is the rev counter lights just game on again! The dent I'm having looked it, I think it will come out.
