I drove the arc, vector and linear and of course the arc performs better than the linear. In my opinion the only benefits of the arc are the hp and the stereo. The interior differences are very minimal and are much less than the '02's SE/non-SE difference.
I bought a linear before the arcs were out, so I didn't get to choose. If I had to choose now, I would pick an arc for the stereo and the power seats. The Linear can't get memory on driver or power on passenger.
The performance difference can be bridged with a couple hundred dollar chip upgrade.
If you like details like audio, power seats with memory then get the arc. If you don't care about these then get the linear. Every other option you mentioned is available on the linear.
