One thing i haven't heard or read is whether we have an electronic throttle-by-wire system like the VW's have or is there an old fashioned physical cable?
In my last Acura, i could reach under the hood and pull the cable to give the engine gas. I don't see anything like that in the SI. Anyone Know?

yeah the cable is still there, actually there are two cables for some reason which I haven't figured out yet, the TB is under the plastic cover so it is kind of hidden, near the radiator.

The second cable is for the cruise control.
