nope not fast, won't even be fast after I put a supercharger on it. But I have an R6 sitting in the garage that does the job of fast pretty well You don't buy accords for being fast, at very best you might get them to be quick, but to me fast is sub 12 seconds, before that it's just a peppy or quick car. right now I'd classify mine as peppy.

I think my car is fast atleast now it is but when i had the old motor in it i thought it was fast but it was slow.

Since my swap i haven't run anyone but i will soon enough.

i switch between an S2000 and my 2000 four cylinder accord, so in my opinion, my car is extremely slow, but i still like it alot and it looks good.

i went up to new york for thanksgiving and after driving my uncles S4, my accord feels like a slug. I can now conclude my accord has no low end torque what so ever. It only starts to pull at like 3550-4000 rpm, only to have my auto shift on me....

What year do you drive? My 95 has a lot of low end torque... I loose it all at higher rpm's... the opposite of your problem. My Accord seems fast to me, but I know deep down it's slow. To me a fast car is sub 14 seconds 1/4 mile.

Its not "fast," but in the freezing temperatures that I'm in right now, my 4banger with a poor-man's CAI feels pretty "zippy."

I have raced my friend in his Probe GT (V6 Auto) and beat him off the line
