CTR - Motor Bang For Your Buck 2007

[aaronng]

I have driven the DC2R and the DC5Rs numerous times and quite honestly, their straight line speeds aren't impressive at all. The Euro Accord feels faster especially rolling start, but the DC2R and DC5Rs can launch better on the odd occasion just because they are a much lighter FWD, 2ndly they have better gearing ratios. Still, not as over rated as the Mitsu FTO though. Or the new CTR we are getting.

I've driven the Euro and the DC5R. The DC5R feels slower, but does the 0-100km/h in less time than the Euro. It's because of the torque. I did both cars from rolling starts.

I have driven both the JDM CL7R and JDM DC5R (Back in S'pore), also from rolling starts.

I can tell you the difference is very very minimal, CL7R's K20A is setup slightly differently from the JDM DC5R's K20A, the CL7R's engine is setup for more torque. Change the final drive on the accord to that of the DC5R, we will have a very very close battle on rolling starts.

Our Euros are CL9s... We wish we had the CL7 though.
