“Hehe. Thanks for the laugh. The Accord, like all Honda’s comes with a first rate suspension, and the V6s are a delight.

The Honda Fit, though basic and of adequate forward thrust, handles as well as many “supercars”.”

After experiencing the power of a 500hp V8, I would never use the words “V6” and “delight” in the same sentence. I seriously doubt the odd looking Honda Fit could handle as well as a ZR-1 or SLS AMG.

***********************************

On the one hand: Handling/Slalom is not cornering/skidpad.

On the other hand: It was late, and I could only remember my overall impression of reading Honda handling numbers over the last decade, not the specifics.

I sat in a friend’s 475HP Mustang a few years ago. It was rocket fast.

May you not get any tickets.

Honda V6 = delight
Mustang Supercharged V8 = exhilaration

Have a great day.
