Great numbers and performed superbly on track! Faster than the Toyota 86 on the track test and Jeep Trackhawk.

Top speed 130? I can tell you that isn't true lol

Edit: I guess he means on that specific track.

Sorry that was the top speed on the straight before the apex.

I can only get mine to do 136.... are u saying its low or high?

I was saying it was low but then I realized it was due to the length of the straightaway on the track. Plenty of documented claims of people going faster when given the room.

PM'd as to not thread jack or discuss high speed driving.

This was a really cool review. I guess it's always cool when they have nothing but positive things to say about our cars though lol.

Nice find. Had a feeling the 2020 final drive ratio improved acceleration a few ticks.

C/D did not get these results but there’s a lot of variables. They still love it though. All in all, the 2020 is maybe .2-.3.. improved in the 1/4 mile... if anything.

Great numbers/track time for an inexpensive 1.5L 205hp fwd car! Gotta love the Si, man!

Car and Driver in 2017, Aug.
0-60 : 6.3 sec
1/4 mi : 14.8 sec @ 96 mph
Top speed : 137 mph ( gov ltd )
The differences are not significant.
There are many variables that can affect a test :
surface quality, temp, wind, gas, driver.......
For me, the results are equivalent.

Sounds like we’re saying the same thing, guy.

It certainly possible that a 6% increase in the final drive would equate to a marginal improvement. Like I said .2-.3, if any..

After driving both, 6th gear is probably the only noticeable difference.

Believe me, I’m not claiming any superiority to a ‘20 model. Si is just a great little car. Just curious if changing from 4.06 to 4.35 made any difference. Definitely not a big deal though.
