Every superhero has a weakness or villain thwarting them at every turn. Superman has those glowing alien rocks. Batman is constantly putting out fires both figuratively and literally set by some deranged clown, and the internal combustion engine has its respiratory system clogged up by its own lifeblood. Yes, we're talking about blow-by. Granted, carbon buildup from blow-by might not seem as serious as the threat of a supervillain, but it's an affliction that affects every engine out there, even your new Honda Accord.

The 2018 Honda Accord 2.0T might not be flying around Metropolis or Gotham punching criminals in the face, but this generation of Honda's full-sized sedan is taking the heroics of daily driving to a new level.

While the Accord is improving on its bad boy image, there is still work to be done toward injecting some more attitude into the 2.0T powered grocery-getter.

The V6 Accord might be a piece of Honda's history, but the 10^th generation carries on the tradition as the cool "Dadmobile" by featuring Honda's K20C4, which shares a decent amount of components with the Civic Type R's 2.0T powerplant. While it might not be a direct transplant of the CTR's beating heart, it still has enough power to make you think that you could set a track record.
