this Accord is the sport trim so the suspension is stiffer than the LX or ex or touring. speed is something relative. it depends how fast you want to go. the Accord is more bulky and spacious but I don't believe it's as fast as the SI. the philosophy of Honda behind the Accord is that it's a family sleek sporty smooth sedan. it's not made to be really a fast car. I got the manual because it's more fun to drive and I like to have the control over the car. also the sport trim doesn't have the extra sensors that are there to replace the human eyes, ears and other human senses and also there is no touch screen and I like that

If you can find a honda accord coupe with the v6 , they'll blow the freakin doors off an si . My 2017 sedan v6 freakin flies . It seems almost as quick as my G37 and that thing is a beast . To answer your question (not that you asked me ) the 4 cylinder sports with the stick shift will do about 7.5 second 0-60 . You have to remember though, the k24 honda 4 cylinder is arguably the best 4 cylinder engine ever created . You could always add boost . Don't get that pos cvt transmission though .

maybe a little bit, but the Hertz are so clear with a decent bass for me.

its very simple process. all clips and just few screws. you can buy spare clips anywhere :)
