The same can be said for the European market. The NSX is definitely not worth the money when you consider the alternatives: Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, or even the countless independent sports car companines in Europe.
Take for instance the new TVR Tamora. A beautifully sculpted 350HP-290LB-FT roadster capable of running from 0-60 in 4.2 seconds. Not bad for $53,000.
let me break down your criticizm of the nsx and even the nsx type r
too costly
it's an expensive car b/c it's hand built
underpowered
290hp isn't alot but in a car that weighs less than 3,000lbs and has a mr layout in an all aluminum chassis it's not just an engine...the whole car is designed with a purpose
competition is better
show me articles and proof from trusted media besides your own measureless opinion where the nsx isn't on par with the competition...even to today it holds its own
tvr is faster so it must be better
with this brilliant analogy you'd better get those last z28s b/c it's faster than the 350z and has more torque and hp...i guess the z sucks b/c there's something that's faster in a straight line
