well the car was going to be like a 150K plus car. not like a 80K GT-R (not like thats cheap) but im sure the marketability in the global economy had something to do with it. just like that lexus LF-A was going to be over 200K. you know 150-200K for hondas and toyotas is a hard sale. im sure there would be a niche market for it but i couldnt see either being a money maker.

what i dont get his both the NSX and LF-A had working prototypes that were Very far in to development. that looks like sooooo much wasted R&D, think about the $ put into it to be shelved
Definately... i remember first hearing about the new NSX about at least more than a yr ago...so much must have been invested in it.
but i just wish at the very least why don't they just release a 70k-80K NSX, just improvements over the going model.
that would be very feasible IMO...but then again, they did pull out of F1 and Subaru also pulled out of WRC....

Money is def. tight everywhere..
