Man the acceleration really sucks from 80 to 100mph. The speedometer barely moves even in fourth gear.

Yes, it does. The civic is a economical car, not a race car.

That's odd... my car pulls really hard at any speed. I can just punch it and the spedometer races through the numbers so fast I can't keep track of it.

Maybe there is something wrong with your car?

80 -100 too slow-
I wouldn't say mine is too slow in the 80-100 range, I did that once on a straight strip of highway before Castle rock, Co and people push up to 100 all the time, I just don't like revving the engine to high, never know, something might give. I don't have any turbo, either-yet that is-
