Sedan: 3318
Coupe: 3259

Got them directly from the source. Hondacars.com

Oh, thx for the link. I am not trying to argue. I just feel being wftpwned when someone come tell me my numbers are wrong as I have spent 4 years with my accord. I mean, just like you and your TSX, you go to forum, talk with people, after serveral years, you should be pretty familiar with the car.

Well, I still dont understand why most of the reviewers have 3285 as the curb weight. Maybe its a Canada vs US thing. Not sure.

In any case...it seems they are exactly the same weight. I was off by 33 lbs So what was the point again?

My point all along was simply that an Accord V6 will beat an AT TSX, but not a MT TSX.

Incorrect again I would say! both AT and MT TSX will beat 6th gen accord 0-60. 7th gen will beat both AT and MT TSX I think.
Again...
0-60, TSX > 6th gen accord
highway, probably 6th gen accord > TSX

Car-Stats.com Report for 2001 Honda Accord EX V-6
Obtained from MT June, 2001
0-60: 7.6 Transmission: Automatic
1/4 Mile: 15.9
1/4 Speed: 89


There is no way an AT TSX is going to pull off 7.6 0-60
At best I'd say the TSX could be even with the accord to 60.


BTW, there is no doubt that a new accord will smoke any TSX.

Well... I don't know if we can really trust this stat. Yes, 7.6 is the fastest I have seen reported, but the slowest I have seen is 8.9s (The most I see is 8.1).

I did it a few times with my Accord side by side from dead stop to around 90km/h. My TSX pwned the accord every time by about 1/2 car length. So, I think either the AT TSX is doing better than 7.6, or the 6th gen accord is more than 8.0.
