15.9 1/4 mile ????????????
Hey Guys
I was reading an issue of consumer reports and they said that an RSX-S did the 1/4 mile in 15.9 seconds. that car has 200 hp and a mt. Does that seem slow to you guys, they said it did 0-60 in 7.3 seconds.
I don't know about you guys, but that seems very slow, but those guys are professionals. Have you guys heard differently???
It makes 15.8 in a bone stock civic harder to believe,
give me your thoughts

Car & Driver did high 14's....
Average from most publications are low 15's
I never trust Consumers Reports, because they have average schmoes testing the cars... and they use too many different drivers. They also don't have the best clocking equipment either....
Plus they're known to accept bribes (just rumours)
