Of course I am assuming, and unless you are in the upper echelons of Acura's design team, so are you. The difference is that, as I have already stated, my assumptions are based on the history Acura has already demonstrated. Yours, judging by the stench wafting from your argument, was extracted from some place located a little more...aft.
Now 6MT Accord coupe is expected to beat or equal that number.
so TLX naturally has to beat 6MT Accord coupe numbers.

The new 6MT Accord Coupe hit 60 in 5.6 seconds. Theres no way a nearly 2 ton, FWD vehicle will hit 60mph at or under 5 seconds right off the production line.Your logic is flawed. You suck at life. I fart in your general direction.

You guys don't understand that honda/ack is holding back on the performance world. You all should know the Honack is the ultimate car builder. Just look here:

Accord 2.4L sport manual on 18inch rubber. Almost as fast ILX 6MT. but 300lbs heavier,2inch higher and wider tires. This is called king of aerodynamics.

Accord coupe hasnt been tested by C&D or R&T and certainly not with performance tires like Civic Si.
I bet 6MT Accord coupe is going to beat 6AT Accord sedan by quite a margin.
FWD RLX will be under 4000lbs. better transmission and massive torque advantage due to DI engine will make it faster than Accord 6AT by alteast half a second if not full second.
see new CVT Accord example despite being less power than previous Accord it is half a second faster.
They are not implementing new transmissiona and complex technology merely for incremental performance boost.

According to Mr. Seredynski, the all-wheel-drive RLX hybrid, unveiled as a design study at the New York auto show in April, uses an electric motor embedded in the 7-speed dual-clutch automated manual transmission at the front axle; the gas engine is a 3.5-liter V-6. At the rear, a transaxle houses electric motors for each wheel. Under hard acceleration, all three electric motors engage, turning the front-drive car into all-wheel drive.
The RLX will be capable of all-electric driving around town. At higher speeds, the gas engine will engage; power will also flow to the rear motors for extra acceleration. The pièce de résistance may be Honda’s bilateral torque-adjustable control system, which can send power individually to the rear wheels to help with cornering. It can also turn a rear motor into a generator to provide drag at one wheel.

I have a suggestion.
If the RLX ends up being under 4.0 sec from 0-60, then you guys apologize for being doubters. But if the RLX isn't under 4.0 sec. from 0-60, then SSFTSX will admit he was wrong and will self-ban himself, never to return.
Now, can we go back to talking about the Accord? I mean, we do have a dedicated RL(X) thread. Just saying...

There is correction. If RLX achieves 4.5 second time with All season tires. they we can assume that with summer performance tires it will be sub 4 second car.
As all M5, S6 achieved sub 4 second timing by lowering the car and with alot lighter rim/tire setup. not like long life thicker all season setup.
see this one all are ZR series lower profile tire setup.

First off, the 4cyl Accord may make 5hp less (1hp less if you get the Sport model) then the outgoing EX Accord, but look at the torque number (which is much more important for a 0-anything pull).
2013 4cyl: 181tq
2012 EX 4cyl: 161tq
Second, the CVT keeps the motor in the optimal powerband all the time, something the 5AT could not do.

BMW 335 6MT 5.3 second time is with summer performance tire at C&D otherwise Accord would have beaten it even with 6AT. RLX has DCT 7 speed transmission. for same performance reason. It is not merely an uprated Accord.

V6 Accord has only 252 ft-lb of torque. RLX will be some where above 400 ft-lb of electric torque which is not the same as reqular torque.. and combine that with SH-AWD setup, 7 DCT, summer performance tires. It is essentially a supercar.
just give example two motor Accord hybrid Phev produces. 200 combine bhp from 2.0L engine but torque output make it stronger than 2.4L engine.
RLX is 3 motor hybrid with DCT transmission.

Thanks to the extra power from the electric motor, the PHEV was a little more fun to drive than the standard four-cylinder Accord

Oh, so no one has gotten figures for a the V6-6 Accord on summer tires, you say? Then lets find a car to compare to that was on all seasons, shall we?
Turning to Motortrend, since Im comparing results seen by the same people to keep variables to a minimum, reached 60 in 4.7s in the F30 335i on Continental summer tires (http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...st_test/?ti=v2). Yet, as you can see in the video below, the F30 335i on Pirelli all-seasons hit 60 in 4.9s. Thats 7/10ths of a second faster then the V6-6 Accord.
Tire brand/type at 1:44
0-60 time at 2:58
How a BMW came into this conversation, I don't know. But one thing I am certain of is that you are incredibly dense. If you want to continue talking about the supercar that is the RLX, lets take it to the appropriate thread.

^ no it doesn't. Unless I am reading it wrong the 335i is 6/10ths faster. That's putting a bus length or two on the Accord. In fact using the data you provided the 3er is faster to 100 by 6/10ths as well so it maintained its lead.
It also says you can't launch the Accord, because well it's FWD and offers next to no traction.

As i said both are not equally setup interms of tires and airpressure. and still Accord catch it at 0-120mph after initial slow start. This Accord is only 271bhp. the newer with 278bhp and better tire setup should pass BMW 335.

Looks like those larger wider tires aren't doing your World Beating Accord any favors.
Now the 335is...
As it turns out, BMW seems to have notably underestimated more than the horsepower stats. BMW claims the 2011 BMW 335is Coupe with its standard six-speed manual transmission will get to 60 mph from a standstill in 5.1 seconds. That's quick. But when we compared a 2007 BMW 335i Coupe to an Infiniti G37 coupe, the BMW posted a 0-60-mph run of 4.8 seconds. That's quicker. Until we get a 335is on our test track in California, all we can say for absolutely certain is that the 335is will be the quickest 2011 3 Series that doesn't wear an M badge

Could it be ground clearance? What about side mirror aerodynamics? How about vent designs on the navigation? Those all have monumental effects on 0-60 magazine racing times!

SSFTSX pro tip: If your claims are proved wrong by evidence you provide yourself, change the rules and then say both cars need a similar set up.
Anyone in the motherfucking real world would never consider a dog shit Accord Coupe V6 6MT HFP against a 335i let alone a 335is. It's not a comparison. In SSFTSX's world of RLXs killing M5s, S6s even fucking Veyrons and F1 cars the Accord can surely go up against a 335is, only if they have the same set up in tires

There is still no 30 x-section performance tires on Acura for proper extreme testing also. Even the HFP Accord coupe is 40 X-section.

RLX with tremedous electric torque and super fast DCT will be rocket from the start.

SSFTSX - Do you realize the two PDFs you posted show different track temps? That is the ultimate variable, and you want to complain about tire cross section??I think the comparo that he really wants to see is to swap the J35Z3 into the 335 along with the FWD drivetrain, suspension, tires, interior......then compare them

The 335i could be heat soaking, suffered a fuel pump failure, in limp mode with my 4'10 asian mother driving and missed 2nd and 3rd gear because she was too busy cussing at me in Tagalog on her phone starting in reverse since she wasn't paying attention and it would still beat that dog shit HFP Accord coupe/oil tanker.
Who the fuck would actually compare the two?

SSFTSX. Why? Because the Accord is the benchmark of automotive perfection.
Unless we're talking about the TSX.
Or an Audi.
What day is it? Oh, right, tomorrow he'll be riding Hyundais nuts

I have to admit that I'm excited for the new Accord. I also have to admit that I came up on a semi carrying a load of new cars this morning and as I approached from the rear, I thought for sure they were new Genesis sedans.
