Talking RDX Development Article

They spent two weeks riding around the city, usually after midnight to avoid the curious, to define the sound and characteristics of the engine.

They modified a gray Accord wagon to accommodate the new turbocharged, 2.3-liter engine complete with a huge hood scoop, Evert says.
....

"The ones who noticed us most were driving the (Honda) S2000 and BMW 3 series," Evert says. "We'd race them to the next light. A lot of that was going on. My team really enjoyed the nightly drives. They were hard core, like robots. They kept pushing for one more lap."

So anyone here race a fast Accord wagon with a hood scoop?

Why do you think my Accord has been going through so many tires lately?

And of course I won.
