Edit. I thought better of taking this too far OT. All I will say is I own an RSX-S along with my G35, and a higher redline does not a sports car make. A flat curve from 2400-6600 is much more desirable than a curve that peaks and remains flat from only 5500-8000 redline. You might be talking about HP, in which case the VQ peaks around 5000, but there is no drop until within 100 rpms of redline. And please try to be a little less condscending with the marketing comments in the future. Remember, these are forums, and you don't know everything. Assuming everyone who likes the VQ has been fooled by Mr. Nismo is a little short-sighted.
