lol.. [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
Let me teach you something important... when driving a brand new automatic car, the best thing to do is press the accelerator and let the tranny do the work. Dont "double pump" or switch from 2-d3-d or do anything else stupid... know why? Cuz its a waste of time.
Also.. its VTEC.. no "h"
peace out

The HX comes with a fuel saving Vtec which basically detunes the performance.... I am not sure on how it works or what it does exactly but I know its for fuel economy.

The VTEC in the HX works the same as in an EX. The HX VTEC head, however, includes the ability to lean-burn.
