It wont happen. I have personally seen an 4.6 8 cyl awd Ford Fusion that will never hit the market, but is doing the show rounds giving awareness to the car.

just looking at that engine again... damn it is INCREDIBLE.... Honda should JUST DO IT!!! It doesn't even have to have 590 hp... something like 450-500 will be enough

Anything over 400 should keep the better part of the buyers happy. Honda needs to get in the true performance sedan market with an upscale competitor. This should be built.

And nobody compared the M5 (while in development/concept stages) to equivalent autos from Mercedes or Audi when the specs were leaked?
If M5 is your dream car, you can sill remain objective towards other cars.

590 HP 4.0L V8. absolutely astonishing.
this thing would really be an M5 killer if the chassis work were done right.
Personally, I feel SH-AWD would have been a cooler drivetrain supliment, but im sure Mugen knows best.
Acura RL Type-R
Acura RL A-Spec
which sounds better?
