    Yep, it was a developing story but Acura spokesman Mike Spencer also says NSX is DOA.

    Correct.

    I can't believe they were stupid enough to think that "thing" could replace a proper NSX.

    Toyota "killed" the neoSupra, and now you think after the NSX got canned they're going to bring the "LF-A" in?

    the new supra that every got so hyped about was the LF-A that Lexus was testing,right now the LF-A is faster than the ZR1,MC12 and Enzo around the ring.

    Really? If I cared about the LF-A (or the new Supra, or any new "supercar" coming out) I'd go find the press release where Toyota said that the project for the new 2011/2012 Supra was canned because of a lack of interest combined with Toyota's push towards a greener future. Though to be honest with the latest news, it looks like it might have been canned because Halo cars are expensive as hell to develop and never profitable regardless of cost.
