Isn't that kinda redundant? "I don't like revving my engine, so I'll buy a Honda instead, the maker of one of the highest revving engines in production today."
I can't think of a single Honda engine today that has a redline below 6500. I have to agree with the others. Just hush.

Been there, done that twice. Good, competent cars but the snooze factor on the Accord increases with each generation. Soon they'll have all the soul of Toyota, which is to say none. My brother in law has an '03 Accord V6 coupe. Sure, it's faster than my CSVT by a bunch and pretty comfortable inside, but it doesn't speak to me in the way that even my '96 Accord 4-cyl 5-speed did.
