"The Versa doesn't accelerate fast enough!"

Some Internet weirdo just told me she is trying to get her first car. The one she drives is technically her father's, although she once said she has been making the payments. I asked why she did not like it and she responded it accelerated too slowly. Well, according to zeroto60times.com, her car takes 9 seconds and mine requires 9.3.

Why are people so eager to get to the next red light?

I rented one and mocked it the entire time. I thought it was a decent car, although I was surprised it was only 1,800 RPM at 55 MPH. It did seem like the major result of me accelerating hard was a buzzing sound, but the Internet never lies, does it?

I could see more of the road because it was taller, but that did not seem to do any good, while I missed my Civic's ability to corner.

Oh well. People are weird!
