Or a new rsx or tsx/ilx with the Civic type r engine, offered in front and/or AWD to compete with the STI? They will never have the balls or claim they won't have the budget to build it, so the best we can hope for is a trim and suspension kit. I hope I'm wrong.
I doubt they'd be able to just throw the NSX powertrain in there. Sure, use the turbo V6, but without the hybrid and use slightly smaller turbos for faster spooling. My guess is it'd be capable of 450hp easy.
