No, I dont think its that I'm paranoid; you did say that automatics are slow without gobs of torque---yet you consider your Accord fast; I havent officially timed my zero to sixty, but what I was trying to do was explain the "experience" of off-the-line characteristics of my vehicle...upon initial throttle tip-in, she hesitates and does not launch; it almost feels like a sack of bricks are sitting on my rear deck....although the tach revs like mad, she seems to get "stuck" in one gear...do we, Accord owners, have to floor our cars each and every time out of the gate to get decent acceleration? As for what I came out of, I was in a 94 Accord EX coupe before this one, with the 145-horse VTEC 4, and that thing was even slower, with the auto.
There's something seriously wrong with your car :eh:
