pffffftttt, i guess it's being kept quiet for a reason...you have to sign-up at honda.com to "keep yourself in the loop" (yes, they said that)

Holy crap, that is killer that they kept that brake setup! 4 piston calipers on a civic! 200 hp too! If they come out with an AWD version, sign me up! Honda's AWD is supposed to be the best out there, or so reviews of the RL claimed.

i wonder how safe SH-AWD really is, like they say they accel the outter wheel going around turns, but wouldnt this cause u to spin out in the winter?

Well its a bigger RSX too, it looks better than an RSX though... RSX's always looked very feminine to me, this civic looks like a smaller acura TL, which I think is a great looking car.

As for RS's comment regarding the AWD, I'm really not sure... I see what your saying, and it would seem as though that would cause the rear end to slide out... but, I'm sure it monitors slippage in extreme cases. The acura's AWD prolly works amazingly well on dry pavement, as for the snow, who knows... quattro is 100% mechanical, so its pretty great.
