Default 08 Accord Coupe v6 MT possibly underrated by honda

268 to the hub. Thats the number honda advertised to the crank!
The sedan dynos at about 268, and about as high as 273-275 on premium. These motors that TOV dynoed arent really broken in yet.

Needs to be a double wishbone sedan with 5-star crash ratings. Not much to be done w/that unless something gives.

The smallest double wishbone car is the TSX/Euro Accord CL7/CL9, but then you're going back to four cylinders and it's a car that doesn't appeal to the same people who buy the USDM Accord/Inspire chassis.

Some reviewers (MT for example) are saying that the 08 accords have lost their "tossability" because they are getting so fat...
