Ummm...you drive a V6 Accord...any 6 cylinder accord is notoriously fast. i remember seeing a stock accord go 0-60 in 6 seconds.

5th gen V6s are slower than death. they run the same 1/4 as the 5th gen 4cyl ex

How did you get it to do it in 6 flat? Mine does it in 7.8 (and thats with a sri).

Maybe silver is a slower color?

Could be my tranny.. She's got 115k on her, but she sounds alright! In the morning she's a bit bumpy and slow to shift, but isn't that a bit expected?

I thought 6th gen V6's were always supposed to be 8 sec cars... Am I wrong?

Could also be the weight difference... You have a coupe, but mine's sedan. But still, .8 seconds? How do you guys do it!
