    Id believe it. It sucks. If you want to get someplace in a hurry, this is the wrong to be driving. I understand it was biult to be an economical luxury family car but come on throw us a bone. Id like to see freeway speeds in second gear not halfway through thrid. it really doesnt help my onramp is uphill and a short merging lane afterwards. My bikes love it, the accord however sees redline evryshift just to get it up to speed.

    IDK, this car is actually faster than my 72 Catalina with 6.6L engine. Considering how little of the available horsepower other drivers on the road use you can still get around a lot of pokey individuals.

    Mine is between 8-9 being legit with timing, so probably faster. It's a lot quicker than when I got it!

    mine was around 5 sec flat, but it depended on how much wheelspin. If i had the slicks on, im sure it would be well under 5 sec.

    Re: 0-60 times

    I have like 11-13 seconds depending on my cars mood...

    That was letting it run in automatic mode tho, not doing d3/2/d3/d4.. So I don't know.

    But then again this is a stock a20 with no mods and nothing special. So I don't expect much


    I think the record for me is around 11 tho, but like I said it varies everyday lol
