So i literally juuuust got back from my 10 day cruise/vacation to the bahamas.... and I have some good car stuff to tell.

So one of the days, we got off of the boat and went to Nasauu (sp?), which is the capital of the bahamas, and I saw soooo many awesome cars that we are not blessed with in the states. I saw at least 5 or 6 real R32's, and all sorts of other crazy cars I have never even seen or heard of before. But the one that took me by surprise the most was a RHD Civic Ferio ALL WHEEL DRIVE!? I was walking along, and saw a sticker on the rear doors that said AWD and realized what I was looking at and damn near $hit my pants. I took a few pictures of it, which were unfortunately the only pictures on the camera that were blurry for some reason, but I will post them up when I get a chance to load them onto the computer. BTW, has anyone heard of this before?? I never knew an AWD Ferio was ever produced.

And also, on the drive home from NYC, we were on the highway and i was taking a little nap when I hear a crazy exhaust and look up real quick and got the biggest grin on my face everrrrr. We just so happened to be driving the same route as the cars in the Bull Run ( www.bullrun.com ). I got to see about 10 Lambo's, a handful of Ford GT's, a few turboed Porsche's, a few Ferrari's, an Audi RS4, a BMW M5 or two..... for about an hour, every few minutes we would see some exotic car just motoring by at ridiculous speeds (as they were meant to be driven haha). So yeah, good drive home. And good vacation too.

Aparently there was a AWD civic that was produced in 95 called the RTi...

Edit: And its not really AWD, its only "Part time 4WD"

Yes, there were produced in Japan...

1991-1995ish(?) The Ferio came in a RTX and RT-Si version that came with AWD although I do believe it was actually 4WD drivetrain.

That's only info from what i found saying it wasn't true 4WD... But I don't know for a fact so I'll take word for it

No your absolutely right, it was not true "AWD/4WD". It was simply set up to allow for better grip on slippery roads.
