The dip looks horrible on paper but as long as you are in the right gear for what you want to do it has very little impact on actual driving. It is a 10% drop that lasts for a fraction of a second even at it's worst.

The torque dip was the worst thing EVER to happen to any production car ever.
Worse than the reliability of a rotary engine, worse than dieselgate, worse than the GM V8-6-4 motor that was too early to try cylinder deactivation....
worse than the Edsel vagina grilles, worse than the GM Diesel engines when they thought they could get away with just converting a gas engine to a diesel engine...worse than italian reliability...worse than Subaru STI head gasket failures.....etc
I could go on and on and on but EVERYONE will tell you that you have never experienced automotive garbage unless you experienced the wonders of torque dip. The most useless, unsafe, flawed "feature" in a modern car ever.
Other than that the cars were pretty good though.
