i just got invited to race a medium sized lexus car at the traffic light...i don't know the model off-hand sad, but i think it shud be 06 upward model. I was in a 2006 2.5ltr 5cyl jetta. it was a drag race. anyway, i won, maybe cos i was only occupant n d other car had like 3 guys init.
So i'm bragging to my friend in Ib about it, and he's looking forward to smoking me with his 03, 4 cylinder accord.
I actually sold off my accord to buy this jetta and even though d accord is nice, i feel its a shitty car compared to the jetta, though the jetta has a shittier interior and annoying electrical problems when they crop up
My question is for those who may know these 2 cars, do u think the 03 2.4ltr accord can out-run an 06 5cyl jetta??

The last time I checked Lewis Hamilton was a millionaire with a faster car and when I did a defensive drivers training, the instructor said you can also avoid accident by staying at home and guess what you might die of hunger, even the roughest driver do not want to die.

Remember a race car accident is very severe because of the speed and yes defensive driving I had a distinction, mind you I train drivers as well.

I think the jetta is faster,used an 06 some years back and I can tell you it's a little beast,much heavier than the accord too,its only an accord with a V6 engine that can compete with the jetta.

Guessed as much. I'm now doubtful as to a higher bhp not necessarily translating to an overall better performance. That i4 accord has a higher bhp and even the Lexus, but the sports mode of d jetta smoked asun-lexus that night significantly

Alot of things comes into consideration when we doscuss about how fast a car should go. Especially in Nigeria where the manufacturer's spec sheet is utterly defeated by the whole lot a car goes thru in the hands of some nigerian owners.

A lexus is faster than a jetta with respect to real manufacturer spec sheet.

Hehehe!!

Una no de get respect eh!

The stock '06 2.5L VW Jetta will be utterly smoked by the '03 2.4L Accord. This is not even a case for the V6 accord. You will be thoroughly convinced with the I4, provided both (Jetta & Accord) engines are in top shape.

Who buys my ideas? cool

Re: Fastest Speed You Have Ever Driven: Car, Place, Time? by Octaves(m): 3:15am On Mar 03, 2016
I never drove a car with a working speedo so i'd say about 100kmph in mercedes vboot (ph- abia state) and peugeot 505 (eliozu to rukpoku ph), Peugeot 504 about 90kmph (aba road). Nissan altima (50mph). That's all. I know i can handle 140 kmph just fine on smooth stretches but i've cautioned my self to always stay on or below 120kmph.

In the context the term was used here, it is incorrect.

Over speeding refers to a speed limit that was exceeded. In this case, no one knows what speed Emmaak2 was referring to, or the speed limit in the locality the car was being driven in.

Wrong definition, brother. The speedo in a road car has little to do with the engine's capabilities. The calibrations may be well beyond what the engine could achieve speed wise, or the engine may exceed the maximum digit with lots of room to spare.

Seldom is the maximum digit the exact speed the car will reach.
