Auto:Honda Blues :( No More NSX


Sadly, it seems like there's a never ending streak of bad news coming out of the auto industry these days. The latest is the word that Honda is scrapping the new NSX, a car which has been in development for some time now. I suppose it's not too surprising considering Honda is pulling out of Formula 1 and announcing cuts elsewhere. Building high dollar, low production sports cars just doesn't make sense given the current state of the auto world. It's sad because the new 500+ hp NSX was shaping up to be a true supercar, just like the original was when it came out in the early '90s. There is still a chance the project will be revived when things get better for Honda which will hopefully be sooner rather than later.
