0-60: 5.3 sec

1/4 MILE: 14.2 sec @ 102 mph


I didn't think they were that fast truthfully....

WTF? Me neither... thought they were 15 sec at best lol.

The 2008+ is about a second quicker to 60 mph and a second quicker thru the 1/4 mile versus the 2003-2007, and the 03-07 is about 1-2 second quicker on both than the 98-02 V6(only came in automatic).... so theyv'e been progressively getting quicker ??

I was being sarcastic about them not being a hot car. I don't care if they are a 12 sec car, they are still not cool. Besides, how many manual v6 accord coupes are out there? Of the ones that are, how many have somebody behind the wheel that even gives a crap how fast it goes?

ive SEEN bone stock 2006 (same as 03-07) V6 Accords trap 98+mph at the track.

heres one with intake exhaust hitting 100mph




and heres a bone stock one doing 96+mph



the 08+ makes 30rwhp more than 03-07

I know but the people that get the 6-speed manual I would bet car somewhat about acceleration and performance, heck the new body style looks pretty good if you ask me... People that drive them aren't trying to be "cool", they just want a reliable, great looking, fun car that they can drive around, performance pertains to fun to a degree as well.... Accords are great cars no matter what stigma you want to attach to it, they have no real true faults to them, the new 08-present coupes don't suffer the anonymity issues that were prevolent in the 03-07 gen. either which was it's only slight fault.

+1

also, the automatic ones were decently quick as well!

They don't start at a bad price either! I'd rather have a Cobalt SS though.

EDIT: Wait... the Accord V6 starts at like $30K. That's a little too much IMO.

i think they start at 29K and go as high as 34k if i remember correctly. Yeah thats a bit expensive but its supposed to be an ultra reliable car and safe enough for a five star crash rating and hold their value really well!!

HUH??? Anyway, in response to the OP's question:

03 and up Lightning, stock vs stock, will kill a 5th Gen LT. 5th Gen LT vs 1st Gen Lightning, Camaro will kill Lightning. Google has been out for yrs now OP, you may want to check it out...

all of this was at an 1/8 mile track in albany

IMO quit talking about it and get your 'win' on film. you will get walked much worse than you think.

Google has been out for yrs now OP, you may want to check it out... you will find how weak 440rwhp is from 308 cubic inches and 8psi boost. I'd lose to just about any new car.

Fixed!!!! .....i had to do it.
