2000 Honda Accord LX review from North America

Nothing. Runs like a Rolex. The shocks respond as well as when the car was brand new, the gas mileage is better than quoted (I routinely get 35+ on the highway and that's at 70+ mph) and she performs so well, that I have to ask myself why I bought a 1995 Audi A6, this is a better car expect for luxury accouterments and status. Great sound system. The seats are very supportive, but a little flat (I realize America is gaining weight and needs flatter seat bottoms to accommodate same)

If I could change one thing about the car, I would like more torque immediately off the line, at off idle. I readily admit that I am a victim of GM/Chrysler V-8's of yesteryear and often forget that an inline 4 is not a V-8. The mid-range torque and rush to redline from the VTEC engine are WELL worth the slight off idle torque deficiency. I notice this only because I have the 5 speed, an automatic model does not reveal this engine characteristic. The solution is rev the engine a few hundred rpm's and the problem; isn't. The ease and smoothness of shifting of the 5 speed are as good as it gets at any price for any vehicle.
