I find it interesting that the testers had problems with the throttle response in the slalom. I know the SHO will never be mistaken for having true sports car handling but this seems a bit harsh to me. I have a 2010 and I have not experienced poor throttle response at all has anyone else?

Never an issue with the throttle response in my 10 after I had the knock sensor replaced. The trans will hunt for high gear and try to stay there but if you put your foot in it, it will downshift and go. If you use the paddles it's instant.

Then again I never put much faith in Honda & Bimmer's articles.
