NSX replacement = Dr. Dre's Detox album... highly speculated, highly anticipated, highly desired yet still not a reality.

Better than G-n-R's Chinese Democracy! Highly speculated, highly anticipated, barely desired, and a total flop when it finally arrived!

LMFAO..poor NSXPrime, a great site and great people. They were SICK anyway if it WAS going to be produced. A front engine, AWD NSX?

So let me get this right. Honda pulls out of F1 for costs, cuts any RWD, V-8, car for cost reasons, cancels their B.S "teir 1" program, blames the economy, then says they are going green and smart, then has their CEO say the LFA is the "old" way of doing things....

Then they put the money in a car that won't be sold so they can race.


They really need to shut the hell up from the CEO to fanbois. Its more embarrassing than ever.

Sounds just like an F1 car. Must say I'm a fan now, although it saddens me knowing that something this awesome is not going to be produced.
