Finally, a review where the reviewer doesn't moan about the CVT
Yeah because the CVT moans enough on its own!
Yushiro Tanabe Maxima is cheap tho.
I know I'm pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to stream newly released movies online ?
The Maxima is the clear winner here. It's better looking, faster, handles better, and is just a better car overall.
Yeah comparing cars that are 2 years apart
Nissan is dead last in consumer reports for reliability. The 3.5 is prone to premature cylinder head warpage and the CVT is garbage. Let alone it looks like a 2011-current Kia Optima.
Nissan sucks.
+Vikk 54 Better looking? LOL Looks like a Mazda6 with it's face all punched in. That front end is hideous.
A decade ago kia and hyundai didnt have their extended warranties like they do now. People wouldnt consider kia or hyundai. Also a decade ago kia and hyundai didnt have any 5 star crash ratings or top safety picks. Or jd power & associates, or BBB awards like Nissan. Everyone knows about the consumer reports scandal. The Nissan Maxima has had the same 3.5 for that same decade. Reputation speaks for itself.
It is better looking......if you like things that are incredibly ugly!
30 seconds in and you could tell that this was a Maxima biased review
I've had my car for three years, I did my research, also. You don't see the Cadenza very often. I can't believe he said that he liked the body style of the Maxima more. Mine is a 2014, but when I was shopping, the Cadenza was the best luxury car without having a luxury car name branding. I have no regrets.
Nice looking Ride the codenza hoping to get mines this new year in march
The Maxima is by far a much better vehicle.. plus it won't lost 60% of its value in a year.
lose*
lose***
+Brownie
the big maxima 4dsc comeback that nissan hoped for hasn't panned out. nissan's cvt tranny may be fine for their economy cars, but its totally inappropriate for a "flagship" sedan.
actually Kia and Hyundai have some of the best residual values of any car brand most of their cars lose bout 25-35% of the value. Which is better than standard 40%
+C-Wow Go check out real value on autotrader and cars.com. Hyundai/kia dont hold their value. I know because I own one. We tried to trade in 2011 sonata on 2015. 25k car worth only 5k. Yep even kbb listed my 2011 sonata for 5k. Wasnt worth selling or trade in so we have it driveway for emergency/backup car. Same class Accord and Camry was well over 10k when we compared with our sonata.
As an owner of the top of the line Cadenza with every bell and whistle I must say I and very satisfied in my decision. It has everything I was looking for in a vehicle...tho my ONLY complaint is that it is not awd. I've been in the maxima and though I do love the new stylish sporty design and drivers area I would still go with the cadenza. People shy from kia but this will all change in due time once people stop caring what other people like and make a purchase solely on what they like and are looking for.
I just bought the exact same Maxima (color) and I freaking love it! I'm blown away at how much Nissan upped their game with this car!
Compare it to 2017 Cadenza
well, you are comparing between 2014 cadenza and 2016 maxima
if you just waited for the new 2016 Cadenza, then there gonna be a difference.
youre right dude
2017 I think you mean
Yo know he said that in the video too
The Nissan Maxima has been built with the same engine for over a decade yet still gets better HP, Torque, & MPG? A decade ago Kia/Hyundai were building unsafe, & unreliable vehicles. If not for Kia/Hyundai extending their warranties they would have more lawsuits and less Sales.
Hyundai/Kia also has been building cars with the same 3.3L V6 engine over a decade.
Nissan gets better mileage mainly due to its CVT transmission.
CVS transmission is like a vacuum cleaner that sucks all the fun out of a car.
I just purchased a 2017 Kia Cadenza and I love it! It's way better than the Nissan. I test drove both and the Cadenza is more sofisticated and refined in my opinion. It gives you all of the perks of a luxury car with only paying a fraction of the price.
gonna be worth a fraction of the price when you try and sell it lmao. and hopefully the engine don't start knocking. but in the end you'll be good. you'll look cute on the side of the road waiting for the tow truck
Rayshidnwind adfefaf No man made material thing is 100% malfunction free, no matter how much you pay for it. I love my decision and will continue looking cute in my Cadenza. Have a wonderful day! :)
If you like a refined ride there are many better options than the Maxima. The Maxima is really only for the person who likes to have fun when driving. Definitely better options for long rides. I would buy the Maxima because it's still a really nice car and I do like to have fun when I'm the only one in the car
Yes maxima is fun to drive the handling in twisty road is a winner and the cvt is fast to response and sporty tuned..nissan is japanese car and japanese car is last for 25years..
The 2017 Cadenza has gotten really good reviews. It has an 8-speed transmission versus the 6-speed in the 2016 model, and has an all new chassis compared to the 2016. You got a really good deal! I just wish I had a Kia dealer closer to me. Both Kia and Buick dealers are a lot further away than the Toyota, Nissan, and Chevy dealerships.
if Nissan could get rid of the CVT Transmission, RWD I'll buy it.
That's not what the Maxima is made for. They call that car a GTR. Maxima is a mid sized FWD sedan for a reason- there is hardly anyone else in the market. Mazda used to be there with the Mazda6, but they gave that up after Ford sold them off. Some of us have to buy a FWD midsize because it's practical- but we don't want it to be boring.
That's call an infiniti
Why do you have to feel an "automatic" car shift "gears"??? I've had my 2i016 Maxima Platinum for nearly 3 years and absolutely love the smooth acceleration when the engine and transmission work together. Try it. 0 to 60 in 5.8 sec or 15 sec .... no shifts - just smooth. Never had a problem with anything. Had a recall to check the master cylinder. The engine likes premium fuel but at 31 mpg highway it's worth it.
Recently got the new maxima and it is
the best car among its competitors.
driving comfort is the best
sport mode is just sexy
fuel economy is also great in this car
better than the infiniti q50, mercedes c200, kia cadenza, other competitors
I know about the age difference in these two cars but the more I look into a Maxima the more I want one. I prefer a standard but even with the CVT, which is a great one, it seems like a car that I'd buy. It would be difficult to find a better car for the same price.
correction on that pricing...... i just bought at fully loaded 2017 Nissan Maxima Platinum medallion edition for 33.9K @ 1.9%
though i am sure the maxima drives "better" for a non sports sedan than the cadenza, i will disagree with you on the non "full sized" part of the cadenza. there are several reviews and guides that put the cadenza in the full size category.
Odd he should have used the Kia Stinger to benchmark what he really was talking about...sport sedan performance versus mid size luxury cars. The Stinger would blow out the Maxima in both categories.
I bought a cadenza. I have to say I like it over the maxima. Yet again, it's for casual use. Not for smashing the gas petal like speed racer.
I like smashing the gas like a speed racer so I got the maxima ✌
OMG best video about maximas (I have an SV with 3.5 V6 )
Kia more expensive than Nissan and praise to CVT?! What is happening to world?!
the world of cars is ever shifting my friend. maybe in 10 years we'll be getting french muscle cars and American compacts hahahaha
+MrAbood900 Suzuki will make buses and Daihatsu limos... And Ferrari one diesel LMP car. It just makes me feel old.
Reptilius Maximus can't wait to get my Kia chopper bike!
MrAbood900 now you are challenging me. Citroen will run NASCAR
Reptilius Maximus and Saab will make a massive comeback and dominate most car classes with it's Swedish aerospace engineering
Maxima the best sedan medium size in usa
I've had a lot of different cars, Manuals and automatics. This is the first CVT transmission I've actually owned and see no problem with it. It's smooth and I never feel that I dont have access to engine power. I think most people on here that are ragging on CVT's haven't really driven these newer ones. I dig mine and also what's this about Nissan's being unreliable and break down after a few years???
ikr I just gotta new maxima and it's amazing
Javier Herrera I have a 2008 Maxima that I just gave to my little cousin ( Sold it to him for cheap...hey its Family). 168,000 miles and never one issue with cvt. Only 2 issues ive had with that car is Timing Chain (guides are cheap plastic) that had to be replaced. About $$1200 to $2,000 average depending on where you get the job done. It also developed some lugging in which they reprogrammed cvt under a TSB (free). Everything else was regular wear and tear. I was worried about Cvt reliability when i bought it new, but the car is still strong and running.
The Kia is more reliable than Nissan. KIA beat Nissan recently in reliability. Everyone used to say always get a Toyota, Honda or a Nissan. Nope the new saying now is- Get a Toyota, Honda, Kia or Hyundai.
I can't see anyone cross-shopping these two cars. The Credenza is basically a Korean Buick while the Maxima is more sport-oriented. That said, the Maxima has to be the ugliest, most stylistically over-wrought car to come out of Japan in decades. I'd take a loaded Honda Accord over either one of these dogs any day.
+Tony W New Accords look like shit..way too busy. Honda has totally lost their way as well.
Haha- Honda Accord. Says a lot about your taste in styling. Sorry, bud- but if Toyota and Honda were the only two car companies on Earth, those damn things would never change. Boooring.
If you want a car like everyone else has, fine. I've had more than one person comment that it looks like it's going 80 sitting in the driveway.
I am a IMAX owner & I strongly recommend this car to everyone.
Doesn't the Cadenza offer a power rear curtain? and rear heated seats? I don't think those are even an option on the Maxima. Cadenza is more luxurious while the Maxima is undoubtedly the sportier one.
You forgot to mention a lot of different about the cadenza which makes point for it.
Kia for me
Dont even have to compare them....
Maxima all the way, especially compared to the Kadenza
If you knew how to spell cadenza and it's not with a k.
+patrick jackson Thank you for the correction.
+Lu-Hiep Phan I like your response to patrick jackson. Very mature of you to not get all angry. I cannot say the same for him
+Larry Riley It's the internet...
Got ya
i think its very stupid to state which car is "better" as if it is a fact based on this guy's preferance. its up to each person which rout to take, either luxury or sport. for me the gorsiouse interior of the cadenza and the comfort aspects in it is what im looking for in a family sedan
i think there two cars have strong performance but when you bought a car like that you don't want performance you want space legroom and comfortable car ,consequently the kia cadenza win this match for me it's my opinion
Om wrong... if you want space you go altima.. maxima is more of a sporty sedan so it lacks the legroom of the altima.
AutoGuide, Nice review. But whats with the saying the Cadenza one ups Maxima for Lane Departure Warning?... You certainly get it on more then one model and it's available on the Altima as well. -Larry, former Nissan Sales Consultant and Nissan Maxima enthusiast since 1992.
Now compare the 2017 Cadenza to the 2017 Maxima. The tides have turned.
I have a 17 maxima and my dad has a 17 Cadenza. The Cadenza is a more mature car, whereas the maxima is evidentially more sporty, and much more fun to drive
i love maxima
If your thinking the KIA looks like an Audi, well you are right since there are many ex-Audi designers working at Hyundai/KIA.
Maxima all the way...what a car.
considering the price, interior, and exterior, the Kia Cadenza is a lot rational than thr Maxima. Cadenza gives luxurious and classic feelings while Maxima gives light and cheap feelings. Id go for the Cadenza
Drive an Audi A4, look at the price, and then tell me about the Cadenza and luxurious and classic feelings.
Comapre the Maxima with the NEW CADENZA 2017
Love the bunny/hamster teeth face on the Maxima
Would never turn back to see the face of that Maxima as I was walking away...unless it was a rental. Kia wins!
Cadenza best.
which one should i get for a family car? passat or cadenza?
Cadenza
Kia wins just for it reliability alone
I own a 03 maxima 6 speed and this was the last of the reliable maximas. The rest have been shit since they moved production out of japan. 13 years old and the car still runs like its brand new. Sadly the last nissan I will own
I used to love the Maxima, I hate the new looks of it. There are 2 or 3 in my neighborhood that pass me all the time and I just cringe and go ewwww!
Are you comparing a 2014 cadenza to a 2016 maximum. .. Get the hell outta here. Do the 2017 cadenza compared to the maximum . Bias as hell for Nissan
Nissan is a georgeous car eversince
Unbelievable, you've just compared a mid-size Maxima (length: 193 inches) to a full-size Cadenza (length: 196 inches). On top of that, the Maxima is new, while the Cadenza is a 2 year old design. Well, they are more premium V6 powered family cars, and if you get them used (under 20k miles), a Cadenza is about $25k while the newer Maxima is between $26k (S trim) up to $37K (Platinum trim).
+cadsux
Right, 3 inches made a big difference. XD
Well, there's other dimensions, interior volume.
Kia has associated itself with the sport of tennis in Australia. I mean the Australian Open. It is likely that admirers of Tennis would also find Kia admirable for its participation in the world of Tennis.
I had sent a request, a while ago to Nissan to participate in the sport of Badminton, particularly in regional Victoria in Australia and help form a Regional League. Badminton is a big market for Nissan to tap into. They should harness sport industry to promote its offerings.
who care about the 2016 cadenza? review the 2017!!
The 2017 model is ugly, I prefer the 2016 or older
I think the charger is the king of the class when it comes to all out performance in a 4-door sedan.
+Jaylen Bond Incorrect.. Charger handles like a truck while the Maxima handles like a SPORTS SEDAN!!! Big difference.... Especially when you consider that the Maxima will still perform the same 10-20 years later while the Charger, well.... WON'T
MitsuUltra the maxima is shit and it's not a four door sports car.
the charger is pretty awesome when it comes to power, but the maxima got it beat in every other way
Blaze Flame not in looks, not in quality and Nissan reliable is horrible. So what does it have it beats in??
+Jaylen Bond boy bye! 1991 maxima still running and driven everyday not one problem! 500k miles on it? while your dodge chargers are where? the junkyard. looks? your opinion! I like maxima better looks wise. quality? wtf! cheap plastic = quality to you? that tells me everything I need to know about you. I will let you stick with your cheap american made rental.. while my maxima drives past your 2 year MAXIMUM legend lmao
wonder why I see these new maxima everywhere and I've seen maybe 2 Cadenza
+matthew von there are more maximas in low life areas .. like where your from
+Droid so and Kias are rich people cars? Just another moron talking shit
+BeMoGamer poor ? a poor wont even buy a new car , more like me had a used 11 camry and the trans broke at 400k sold it and now i have a 05 marquis and it suck fuel like mad
+BeMoGamer 160k ????
+BeMoGamer u talking from an experience or what (( sorry if my English is bad ))
I prefer the Maxima by far but the new 2017 Cadenza is a gorgeous vehicle. It looks like a hit for Kia
No one has bought the cadenza! Kia/hyundai has been plagued with massive electronic problems. Its great to have lots of features but not if u need to put it in the shop
MAXIMA ❤️❤️❤️
Why is everyone raging about the Kia being older. We have seen with recent Kia/Hyundai update they stick to what they know (value) and make styling tweaks and a few to driving dynamics. Oh top of everything 2 years is a not long life for a car. The last gen maxima ran for almost 6 years. Plus these cars don't go after the same audiences. The Maxima goes after a sporting vibe while the Kia is more of a traditional luxury sedan. After the refresh the Kia will still drive the same but have better looks which wasn't a point of criticism.
Kia got a full redesign except for the roofline
+tete “hhn” Bbb so did the optima and the Sonata but they really aren't that different from their predecessors
Zachary May yes
For the record altima is nissans mid size sedan. Maxima is there large lux car ..had 3 know luv my max s just bought a 2019 a year ago luv entire car .
Nissan paid y'all good 🤐
maxima is the winner, nissan has the best cvt's and all there cars are reliable, people who say nissan is garbage clearly haven't driven one.
made in Japan👍 Nissan
+Abu Anas Nissan is under French management. French way not Japan. lol
+James k that's not how it works..
Engine Deckard, TN. Assembled in Canton Mississippi
+Pavel D1 Nissan owns Renault jackass
MrJrod899 Nope... Who is CEO of Nissan? tell me lol He has revived Nissan which was almost fallen
Cant believe im saying this but I would rather have a Buick Lacrosse than either of these two cars. Specially dont want that CVT garbage from Nissan.
Oh I agree the cvt is absolutely the worst transmission on the market today.
+whatthehell1338 in terms of efficiency you would be terribly wrong lol but they are less "sporty"
Nissan maxima is not garbage its japanese car they last for 25 to 30 years..because japanese they built cars properly..dnt underestimate the maxima because its great car..the naxima would destroy your buick on track and in straightline..this x tronic cvt is tune for race it is not just ordinary cvt its tuned for sport..
I've driven the Maxima, and the CVT isn't nearly as bad as people make it out to be. In fact, in this day in age when everyone is going to 8 and 9 speed automatics, you tell me how different a transmission is from a CVT. It really all depends on how they are setup to handle the engine they are mated to. My only gripes with how it is setup in the Maxima is that it doesn't seem as responsive at the low end. But I'm not really into drag racing Maximas, and I prefer my power to come in the form of highway passing. For that, the Maxima has no problem getting up to speed.
Maxima wins here but this comparison is just unfair
@autoguide, great reviews but can y'all Review the 2016 Chrysler 200C or S to the 2016 Nissan Maxima.
Sticking with my 04 maxima quick as hell lol
despite being fast and fun to drive, it still sucks because it has a "cvt"
+Blaze Flame sarcasm btw
Where is the comparsion? Bruh why you made it look like you're conparing a Maxima to a Sentra? You buried the Cadenza
you guys should've compared the 2017 cadenza .. obv Nissan would be the clear winner here
Was that payed by nissan?
Ard you joking? The Cadenza looks like an old Buick next to the Maxima.
look up sales of the 2 and reviews of the 2 , you must be new
I remember when the concept for the Maxima was revealed and I loved it so much! I feel like the production model was reaped of all the good styling elements and we were left with an ugly second-best design. Neither are worth 40k+ as far as I'm concerned. Interesting comparison though!
I have a 2016 maxima and it is the best
I legit feel sorry for Kia owners
Are chargers fast ? Tried my maxima 300hp cocky dude couldn't handle the maxima.
i see a lot of comment recommend that CVT !!! i don't know why .. i have only one real recommendation if you are buying used DON"T go near CVT transmission vehicle from a lot of real life mechanics is just too expensive too complicated and is not reliable . anything brand new it will sounds good until you put on it some miles. then wait for the surprising maintenance cost $$$ .. don't take it from me just do your research before buying a CVT transmission Vehicle. specially the once that used on a Nissan vehicles .
both cars are gorgeous
Would really like to see the Maxima in the EU market with a 2l diesel and a 6speed manual
aint gonna happen lmao. Nissan is all CVT now.
ANKITH NAZA Well if they ever decide to sell it in Europe, they pretty much have to give it a diesel and a manual, as they make the majority of sales in that class
But like i said nearly all Nissan cars come a with CVT only now for fuel efficiency. I dont see Nissan making a diesel engine Maxima with a Manuel Transmission for Europe anytime soon or maybe never actually. But , if they do a manuel diesel Maxima , then they should sell it worldwide and not specifically for Europe
ANKITH NAZA All current cars Nissan sells in Europe can be had with a manual gearbox, so it depends on the region
I didn't say all of em have a CVT. i said nearly. So like 70% of Nissan is CVT , 10% Normal Automatic , 10% Sports and 10% Manual.
Cadenza in middle east has the 3.5 engine
And its much cheaper than maxima in here and of curse the spare parts of Cadenza is much cheaper
I have rented several different Cadenzas and recently a Maxima. I was not impressed with the Maxima. The fit and finish was poor for a car in it's price range and the CVT had an annoying drone that got very old very quickly. Understanding that most of tbhese reviewers are a lot younger than me (I'm 37) their expectations for a car are probably very different. I want refinement resale value, and reliability and unfortunately the Maxima is neither refined and as of late has not been very reliable either(Consumer Reports). Go for a Lexus ES or Camry XSE.
I agree. Nissan is seriously over rated. Plus, their reliability is awful lately. Personally, I liked the Optima Turbo. It's no luxury car, but it's cheaper & far more sturdy than the Nissan I drove.
Lets face it, from a driving enthusiasts point of view, they are both a bit shit and designed for people who want a transportation appliance, not something that they get excited about driving. I can't believe the Kia is so much more expensive though - what is up with Korean manufacturers at the moment charging more than the superior Japanese competition? What is up with stupid consumers actually falling for it? Madness.
2016 Kia Cadenza is not being produced anymore.
Brand new one already came out.
Strange comparison.
Strange comment
Cadenza is better, kia has one of the best interiors ever
For that price, I would give up the features and the V6 and go with a BMW 3 series. It's hard to justify spending that much on a fancy Nissan or Kia. When German cars are within arm's reach.
do you know what comes on a 40k bmw? lol.... they are equipped like a base model accord, and bmw depreciate like a laptop
maxima 44 seconds into the video. all the maxima numbers are better and it costs less. What more do you need?
I wouldn't buy the Maxima just for the CVT, i will never get a CVT whatever how good it is.
Nissan made the worst CVT transmission thats a known fact and they always fail, best in the market my a**
Over 90 thousand miles and NO ISSUES on my Altima. That is a stereotype!
That is the old credenza. It is not fair.
this really a comparison??? lmaooooooo DAMN I HATE THIS ERA SMH
45k for a Kia?...C'mon...lmao
This is a luxury car, I don't know why he said it wasn't in the beginning. It's worth it.
Look at the 2019, and you will figure out very quickly that its a value for 45k
Let’s be Serious MAXIMA is Clearly the Winner Here. Nissan makes Greater cars than a lot of other Make & Models out if you ask me. #Nissan
Nissan and CVTs are not the best of friends at all. If it was available in a manual or an ordinary automatic transmission then I would be impressed but the stuff I have seen with my own eyes walks me away from the Maxima
SR AWD with torque Vectoring Nissan PLEASE! its time for the Icing on the cake, 4DSS for real not just a catchy name. Or you can have it available on all Maxima's as a $1200 option
+LIllyman JPL it will kill their low selling q50s.
True, but i would think that Maxima fans will not jump into an Infinity as Infinity owner will now crossed shop with the Maxina, Infinity owners might consider a BMW, Benz, or an Acurra TLX, but i get your point.
Ya know that stupid looking Facebook picture that ALL girls/women do with their lip poked out with the camera angle kinda up in the air?....that's exactly how the Maxima looks....ab-so-lute-ly ridiculous.
44 grand for a Kia don't make me laugh!!
Jumped the gun on this no? The new Kia Cadenza isn't even out yet...
Yup, it's an unfair comparison... a 2 year old car vs brand new car.
Marlon Johnson and that new Cadenza they showed looks like some next level shit
+Marlon Johnson awkward moment when you are out of touch with the car industry and don't know most cars don't come out at the same time, when the new corolla came out they compared it to the 2014 civic which was achient in comparison, match ups like that happen all the time get over it
matthew von that's not the point ya crazy, the new Cadenza is out this year, this comparo would've made more sense back when the Maxima was released last summer 2015.
search "kia cadenza 2017" .... remember that in korea , the kia cadenza was introduced in 2010 as a 2011 model
fortunately or unfortunately wateva u call it..i own both the models..2105 maxima and 2013 cadenza..frankly speakin cadenza isnt a sports car..it drives perfectly as it has to be..it does not require sports car type gear shifts..and i drive maxima..and i hate its CVT my worst decision ever !
i dunno y i bought it ..interior is awesome no doubt..but CVT sucksss
2015*
+Hussain Mirza CVTs are absolutely great. They never hunt for gears on throttle or uphills. They are super quiet on highways. Fuel efficient. What else do you really want?
+MrPensiveThinker i want the gear shifts ...the real feel of car is when u get to see the rpm fluctuate
not fair fight
should have waited for the 2017 model year
How big is this car? Sizewise is it comparable to BMW 7 series?
+Rizki Pratama For the Maxima, no, since it is mid-sized. Any car over 195 inches long is full-size. The 7 series is 207 inches long, Cadenza is 196 inches long, and Maxima is 193 inches long.
+cadsux thank you.
Can it fit a Galaxy Note I'm not really concerned about an iPhone
Yes it should cause the iPhone 6 Plus is slightly larger, so if that fits, then your note will fit
Maxima FTW :)
But you are comparing a Nissan to a Kia, what did we expect here.
I expect the Nissans transmission to shit itself.
we wont another .-vs-. maxima vs impala
Both are overpriced. Honda Accord. V6 tops out in the low 30k range for the higher Touring trim level. Has great resale value for you buyers.. Great power in under 6.0 seconds. No cvt for the v6. If you are spending mid 40s you may want to look at the German imports but sometimes reliability is an issue.
Accord is also a vanilla boring car that a gazillion people are driving around.
Maxima is more upscale and uncommon, which is awesome, don't want to see the same old vanilla car everyday.
+tom11zz884 tell me how many Accord Coupe V6 9th current generation you see daily. 2 doors and V6. Slax-imas are relatively common. Again, anything with the sensitivity of human beings is always subjective.
centfla I see at least twenty 2015 or newer Accord Coupes every morning on my way to work, and as for the Sedans, forget about it, I see one almost every second.
Accords are like the Appliances of the car world, everybody has one of those boring things...
+tom11zz884 see ya smart guy. You know coupes are rare. Next time you drive your Prius take a look around for the coupes. That so called appliance does 0-60 in 5.5 seconds. 😱
centfla I see that I hurt the feelings of the Honda Fanboy by calling the Accord boring...lol
And 5.5 0 - 60 seconds is oh so fast in cars these days...lol It still handles like a boat and is a vanilla boring car.
