The pictures pure gold, but a Honda CAN do this, let me explain

An owner of an Ariel Atom with a turbo charger, in place of the supercharger, pushing 450hp, was able to lift both wheels off the ground in a recent drag race (I think he did the quarter mile in about 9 seconds).

His front wheels stayed up all the way into third gear (the car has over 60 of the weight on the rear wheels), and since it's a Honda engine, one could say a Honda managed it off as well.

But agreed, it's not quite the same thing...
