FTW!

What really needs to happen is Toyota needs to bring something to the Evo/STi table... Then Honda needs to get smart and release a replacement for the S2000 w/ SH-AWD.... God I can't wait for the next few years! Freaking Honda/Acura needs to start slapping SH-AWD on all their cars.

From everything I have seen, it sounds like the new NSX is going to be equiped with SH-AWD (along with a front-mounted V10 engine). Honda wants it to compete with the GTR, so they are going for a complete redesign. A lightweight AWD NSX is definitely going to be interesting.
