Boring cars or not the AWD system looks interesting. I wonder how "does it feel" in everyday driving. And ofcourse, REAL DRIVING

This super awd will be used in acuras car as well, both the 200x TL and 2005 RL.

Mmm, when will the maxima adopt G35 intelligent awd?

My guess is never since the Maxima is on a FWD platform, and the G35 is the FM (front midship) platform also used on the 350Z and FX. The Maxima might get a version of the Murano's AWD system though.

I think the Honda system is very cool. I never really thought Hondas were boring to drive, as they are the import tuner vehicles of choice in California (well they used to be, until the Civic lost its front wishbone suspension). SH = super handling...hmmm I never knew that!
