err what does a HONDA NSX concept has anything to do with Nissan??

Mazda Japan is losing a lot of money and unlikely to commit to a sport car (other than MX5) in the short term.

Nissan has GTR and 370Z and needs a new silvia to compete with 86 (if they want to).

while Toyota is releasing the Lexus sports car that might target the GTR (in terms of price if not performance) and maybe make a new Supra to compete with 370Z.

Honda will just brings out the NSX to compete with GTR and i can't see they making cheaper sports car, not with RWD at least.

while Mitsubishi will release a hybrid EVO and that's about it.

Sorry got Nissan and Honda mixed up, been a busy day.

Either way Mazda wont do anything they are enjoying the profits of Mazda 3, and rightly so they are a great car.
