Because torque. And it handles SO WELL. The steering isn't even completely vague!

...Torque? No. Not torque. Not from an N/A Honda. Honda does not know what torque is.

And this is coming from someone who owns a car with a Honda V6.

I just feel this visceral rush the moment I press the accelerator. I get pressed into the back of the seat as the revs climb. My hair stands on end… I'm just talking out my ass. Confession time: I guess I don't know what torque is :(

Sorry mate, but I drive a TL which has the same V6, and while it's more impressive than my 2003 NA Impreza, this is not torque. Get behind a 2003 Terminator and you'll know what torque is.

In my defense, this car has the most torque and horsepower of all cars I've driven. The only thing with more torque than it is my dads '99 F150 with the 4.6, which is much heavier. So it does feel rediculously torquey to me

this...

Generally, I like the Accord... but not for the torque

The Honda V6 is a good daily driver engine, but that's it.

I get it. The most torque I've ever had in my hands was 250lb-ft, so when I got to experience a Terminator I didn't know what to expect. Let's just say I was short of needing a new pair of underpants after the first launch

Ah no, not that thing. A Terminator Cobra with 500hp/500lb-ft and some fat tires in the rear to hook it all up
