Hello everyone.
The reason I ask is that my car doesn't seem that fast to me. I like that it accelerates easily (in other words, w/o a fuss), but it just doesn't seem like 268hp to me. Maybe I'm not pushing it hard enough or something? Or perhaps my expectations were really high after reading about 0-60 in about 6.5 seconds.
If you do feel your car is quite fast, where on the tach do you push it to in order to feel the speed? I assume redlining it shouldn't be necessary for it to feel fast (though you need to do that with many Honda's, don't you?).
Anyway, I like the car except for a very loud thumping I have when I go over bumps in the rear passenger side of the car. I thought maybe it was the car jack or the cover over it, but it seems too loud for that to be the cause.
