Yep! And the F20C for the 2L n.a.

Your right that's why some enthusiast do a B20 frankenstein on the B16 or choose the SR20VE over the SR16, especially since the SR20 (NeoVVL or not) is known for their "truck" torque. But then again, that's why some tuners opt to use variable valve controllers which adjusts Vtec or NeoVVL RPM engagement.

Lastly IMO, these cars can "still" be a good daily driver minus low end torque. But yeah they are more marketed towards performance enthusiasts who wouldn't/couldn't buy a an expensive sportscar but likes performance, and still have an everyday reliable/practical everyday ecobox.
