>This is a 100HP motor, most cars with a 100HP motor are far from a 50/50 weight distribution.

Honda Prelude and similiar have ~100hp and pretty decent weight distribution.

Which Honda Prelude? The H22A engine puts out more like 200HP. Not at all in this class. Grassroots Motorsports corner weighed a Honda Civic Si, still performance oriented, still way over the 100HP, and found 62% front loading. The Honda site lists the 2011 Civic Coupe as 60/40 and 140HP.
