disapointed with 03 performance

Are you joking? If your prelude was not seriously modded torque doesn't compare with the new accord. Just look for dyno. BTW, why did you purchase the car if you didn't like it?

I have a 2003 automatic LX V6 coupe and have raced my friends 5 speed 03 with the 4 cylinder. He stays about 1/2 to a full car length behind up to 60mph and then I just walk away quickly. I have run a best of 14.98 at 94mph in the 1/4. I can promise you that even with an intake and exhaust the 4 banger wont even come close to that.

good driver + good launch = ahead of the v6 easy at least up to 60

Does anyone know what the outcome of a race between a 2003 5 speed manual 4cyl Accord lx and a 2003 Civic Si would be?
I think maybe the accord would win, not sure though.

I love when someone beats a car in a race and then they declare that " the 4 cylinder Accord with the 5 speed is faster than the new V6 Accord". I hate to break it to you but all that means is that either the V6 wasnt racing you at all or he just got a late start because anyone with an automatic Accord has to just slam the gas pedal to the floor and watch you vanish in there rear view mirror. Those cars are not close at all in the quarter so I have to belive that the guy in the V6 wasnt racing. Both drivers being equal the V6 automatic coupes with beat the 4 cylinder 5 speeds by at least 5 car lengths in the quarter. All it says when you won is that the other driver had no clue what was going on. It doesnt mean that your car is faster by any stretch of the imagination. If you want to race an automatic V6 coupe just get an intake and exhaust for your 5 speed 4 cylinder and I would love to race you bone stock.
