easy, because it's a honda. people will always complain about hondas and torque no matter what.

More or less. They're pro German (Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, etc.) I wonder why. :thinking:

Here's Motor Week road test:

http://www.mpt.org/motorweek/reviews/rt2235a.shtml

0-60 = 7.6 sec.
1/4 mile = 15.9 sec.

This is the 6MT model. Disappointing to say the least.

These are the same people who got a 0-60 of 8.0s for the new V6 Accord. Their 0-60 times are always off and always unreliable.

I'm think it'll be closer to 6.8s or 6.9s.

:down:

BLAH! There's something up with Motorweek's testing. I mean, their 03 Accord V6 testing got 0-60mph @ 8.0 second, when other reviews has consistantly achieved 6.7-7.3 seconds. 8.0 seconds is the same time they achieved in the less hp, similar weight 98 Accord V6. Something's not right.

is a 15.9 SOOOO bad?

give me a freakin break. i dont know what you guys expected it to do with only 200 hp. its not a civic you know. im sure some people will get better times, but 15.9 is to be expected.

PS what did disappoint me was the mileage. 21 mpg city? how could this be?
