They are all AWD. I'm guessing that this Honda is saying "class leading" in FWD only.
310 hp/ 295 lb-ft tq in a FWD hatch is a lot, and a whole lot coming from Honda! Not use to seeing torque ratings like that from Honda from the factory!
This would be an excellent motor to go in a S2000 successor if they're thinking about it.
I'm extremely surprised that the Type R is available in 6 speed manual only. Especially since Honda has a new 9 Speed auto and 8 speed DCT
