that's a hard one as Honda generally doesnt provide 0-100km/hr or 1/4 mile times on their non-sporty cars. i'll try and see if I can find out.. or i'll ge tthe stopwatch out next time am on a testdrive ;)

I got the result of 0-100 times from article from Chinese version V6-L, they said it achieve 8.4sec.
:| seems very slow for 202kw?
i was expecting around 6.9 with those power to weight figures.
thats the same as the old V6L claims on redbook
ya, but i will try it in my own hand when i get it next mth.
If it had a 6 gear tranny then it would be around 7.x. Shame its only 5 gears ftl
Motor Trend magazine from the USA report 0-60mph (96.5 km/h) in 6.5 seconds and the 1/4 mile (402metres) in 15.0 seconds @ 95.5 mph (153.7 km/h) for the luxury V6 equivalent.Quote:

really? that will be very impress!
I imagine with that kind of power and that weight it should do around those numbers with the right driver 6.8-6.9 & a high 14 second quarter seems very achievable
I saw an article on the accord coupe in auto doing a 14.6 i believe.
I dont imagine the sedan would be to much behind it :)
Really want to test drive one! :)
I did say say less than 15 seconds. The Coupe is lighter and it comes with a six speed manual as standard. Might explain the better times.Quote:

went for another drive last night and yeah I think sub 15 sec 1/4 mile..
I remember being severly chopped by the old model V6-L in my EG just after I did my B16 swap.. I was running 15.1" in thiose days so yeah I definately think sub 15 sec. 0-100km/hr would be pretty snappy in the new car - it takes off like a rocket and has much more low and mid-range torque compared to the old model which just took off once in VTEC.. the new model has great power delivery anywhere in the rev-range !!
the engine note is more burbly and throaty (when pushed) than the old engine also.. sounds awsome on song !!
:) cant wait to test drive one
Hopefully they'll let me this weekend, sounds nice :)
hoho, I am pretty happy to hear such info, can't wait for my car come home...
