Thanks....

Curb Weight AT- 4014
Torque @ RPM 256@5000 (foot-lbs)
Horsepower @ RPM 290@6200

^^ Thats from this site http://autos.yahoo.com/acura_rl_sedan-specs/?p=all



Curb Weight 4012 lbs
Horsepower: 290 hp @ 6200 rpm
Torque: 256 ft-lbs @ 5000 rpm

^^ Thats from www.AutoTrader.com





1/4 miles times seem very hard to find for the 07

the 2005 can do it in 1/4 Mile (sec @ mph): 15.29 @ 92.84
thats with
Horsepower (hp @ rpm): 300@6200
Torque (ft-lbs @ rpm): 260@5000

Thank you both.

He might launch better than my FWD...I'm pretty sure with those low torque and HP numbers..I'd be able to run him down by the 1/8th.
