Transmission is the same too, think about it. RL is front engine FWD, NSX is mid engine RWD, is the same thing, the engine is driving the wheels right next to it

Those were all designed and developed in Japan. U.S.A. is my favorite country to live in, but American engineered cars..............I have yet to find one that I like to own.

Well I guess you're right.

Pretty sure the PR says the New NSX will be manufactured in the Ohio plant. It did not mention where it's being designed, which by default should still be in Japan.
