So you'd order a Ferrari 430 without the e-diff?
The ATTS system was lauded by many to be an awesome piece of machinery and the Prelude SH was crowned the bet handling car for under $30k in its heyday. Unfortunately its not the most durable thing Honda has built and ultimately you can't have that with a track car.
Electro-wizardy is cool when implemented correctly like the AYC/ACD on the Evo, e-diff on the Ferrari 430, SH-AWD, and stuff like the computer controlled diffs on WRC cars. But its painfully obvious from this short list that usually its not implemented well for a performance application. I'd dare say only the AYC/ACD and e-diff are the only two that really fit the bill for street cars.
