Just curious, just want to hear what people think of the Drive by wire.

I hear it's pretty transparent. Hopefully it's nothing like the DBW on my CSX otherwise I'd be selling that car in a second.

I hated the DBW on my TSX as well. The revs would drop dramatically during the 1st to 2nd shift bogging the car down.

What I find I don't like is when the car is cold... it bogs down a lot and the throttle response is piss-poor. Once the car warms up the bogging issue goes away, but the throttle response is still brutal.

I wouldn't put up with this if it were my only car, it's that bad.
