The car is slower than i expected from a 200hp car

i found the car is not accelarting fast when accelatering from 140km/hr and up. has anyone ever drove the car over 210km/hr ? i did that once. because there was a infinity G35 i ran into over the weekend on highway. i felt like the car doesn't go even i hit the gas all the way down, and i just see that the G35 just keep on catching up and i was helpless. has anyone feel this way? the car is way slower than i expected from a 200hp car.
and yeah, one thing i want to know, does anyone hear some wired metal sound when you hit the gas hard? i heard some rattle when i did that yesterday.

You do realize that the G35 has 260+HP, right?

Did you know that the TSX weighs 3300 lbs?

You do the math...

0-60 on 6MT TSX is about 7.4 seconds

0-60 on 6MT G35C is about 6 seconds

of course its not going to be as fast
