Exactly. They are slow by todays standards but lets not forget that everyone LOVES the 2000 Integra Type-R, for how responsive and quick it is, but the Aveo RS Turbo has the same 0-60 and people bash that as slow.
Heck the current Mazda 3 2.5L and Impreza RS do the 0-60 as quick(Impreza is actually slower) as my 2000…
