the accord shifts very very fast ( very low lag time ) no wheel spin , DOHC engine ( i-VETC ) , much lighter , much much better Drag air flow for the body and for the engine ,,,


so don't think it's all about horespower and toruqe many other factors effect the car performance ,
True but...... Crown Vics are still pretty damn fast and aerodynamics don't play that big a roll at those speeds. The extra weight of the Crown Vic is more than accounted for in the extra displacement. DOHC doesn't make that big a difference either when comparing an Accord to a Crown Vic. Unless I am wrong. Someone please let me know if I am.
