You are correct, Sir! That much for my latest upgrades of the media softwareChrisK said:
It looked like their test vehicle was a Honda Accord. It also seemed that the rear end and stop lights were somewhat diffferent from the USDM version. I wish Honda would do something about the Accord rear end. The car is yet to grow on me but I think the rear end is plain hideous. Somehow on the video it didn't look that bad. Also wider tires seemed to contribute as well. Thanks for the heads up. Good info!Fortunately a somewhat friend of mine is one of the big salesman an our local dealer and he just happends to also be an awsome auto crosser (Both he and his wife finished 1-2 in their class with both their S2000's) and I have no doubt he would actually encourage you to drive it hardikata said:I can see the sales associate's face when i show up at the dealership for a testdrive and say: "I would like to test the SH-AWD in the RL going 75mph on the highway ramp..."
I think it is a huge improvement from the SH on the Prelude simply because of the AWD. With the Prelude you can only transfer or manipulate torque between the two front wheels. With the SH-AWD you can transfer and manipulate torque between all 4 wheels. Did you see that part where it says it can send more torque to the rear wheels around a corner, but not only that it can send more of that torque bias to the outside rear wheel. What it sounds like is at any given point 3 wheels could have different torque ratings directed to them. It is also variable between front/rear and left right so if need be you can have more torque in the front wheels and left or right fronts as well. Anyway, it appears to be an awsome system. The only thing I'm wondering is how long does the clutch packs last?ikata said:
That is because it no the honda accord, is the honda inspire!!! a little more up scale. The inspire use to be the TL brother for the last few years, but this year the 04 was mostly design by acura and only sold in the states.ikata said:You are correct, Sir!

It will be neat to see how the SH-AWD perform udner real road conditions. I am yet to see an owner of the Prelude SH that swears it is invluable but maybe Honda imporoved it the second time around. I can see the sales associate's face when i show up at the dealership for a testdrive and say: "I would like to test the SH-AWD in the RL going 75mph on the highway ramp..."
