You do have a point there Noel, the NSX needs a descent exhaust to sound good, at least for everyone except those in the car. I just don't like V10's. Even the Carrera GT only sounds really good right at the top of it's rev range.
4wd systems heavily biased to rear drive can certainly work well but the extra weight of them doesn't make them worthwhile for a pure "balls out" sports/supercar car.
Simon, here's a link to the Clarkson vid Paul's taking about... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SvNQukizlk Ohh and he gives the NSX a namecheck

Being a fan of Honda engines, I later went to Honda's Tochigi Research Center on two occasions and requested that they consider building for the McLaren F1 a 4.5 liter V10 or V12. I asked, I tried to persuade them, but in the end could not convince them to do it, and the McLaren F1 ended up equipped with a BMW engine.
