I am so disappointed that the Lexus LF and the NSX will never make it in to production. Both car were sure to be a hit on the streets.

Sooner or later the news will come of the Lexus LF-A to be cancelled as well. But all this does is potentially get more GT-R's sold.

Toyota registered LFA trademark, but that dosn't mean that Lexus is still going to launch a supercar during tough economic times? Not necessarily; it just means just means that if a company wants to name its car "LFA", it has to go through Toyota first.

If Nissan can do then, then honda could still do it. They just realized that it would take more money to actually beat the GTR. Toyota will do the same. Nissan is the leader in sports cars in Japan.

Damn, this just spoiled my day hey, first out of the F1, now bye bye NSX. Shit, gotta hate those enviromentalists hey, lets beat them up. But the new NSX was a beatufill looking machine and read up on rumours that it beat the GTR and Veyrons time on Nurburg ring. Common Honda, let a couple through the green gate, let the world see what Honda power really is.
