I think with the current crop of cars the idea of reliability is moot. When Toyota is using BMW powertrains it probably has high reliability.
Most cars now the reliability isn't in powertrain its in the new tech/features- software.
I agree Honda needs an RWD platform. But, I think they will follow the Audi path and FWD with AWD as an option.
The elephant in the Japanese room is Madza and the rumored Inline 6 RWD Mazda 6.
