[Dan in Pasadena]

Your car is plenty fast but perhaps not in the way you could (or SHOULD!) show on an L.A. street. Put a few "twisties" in the way of an acceleration test (say, the Pasadena Fwy - not that I would know of course) and those Accords will drop back hard. Straight line? Well, your car was never meant to be fast in that way. Look at it this way, they see their Accords and Camrys as "sports cars" and they just are NOT, period. They are econo sedans/coupes. Good cars, but also lowest-common-denominator cars. Our cars were NEVER that. As for the 300Z's...you'll have your hands full with one that is well driven.
