Nice article...thx for sharing. Been loving my F25 since day 1. What a beast!!!

What do you guys think about this guys comments after the article? I almost joined Edmunds Inside Line just to respond but thought better of it.

ummmm.... the 2013 Accord V6 and the 2013 Optima Turbo both trap at a higher speed in the 1/4 mile than the twin turbo 35i in this test.....

One must really ask themselves.... why have the complexity of DI, TWO TURBOS, and all the associated hardware when Honda can make a SOHC non-DI V6 perform the same.... yeah yeah, the area under the curve is what matters... except it doesnt..... Honda deserves some serious props for the genius of their V6.... 34mpg highway with a regular 6 speed auto.... marvelous...



..."...but then at 4,000 rpm the afterburners light and the X3 really comes alive..."...

I would love to see this hyperbole used when describing the 2013 Lexus ES350 do a 1/4 mile run. I am sure it would stay right there with the 35i to 100mph... yet no such hyperbole would be lauded on it....

ummmm.... Someone tell this guy the X3 is not a sedan..."hyperbole" ? He has obviously never driven a F25 before...or has confused the 35i with the 335i
