but then again, pricing and status is the matter.

Old NSX isn't popular because of its ridiculous price and performance compare to Corvettes. It didn't make its name up onto the exotic list.

New NSX, still a Honda. Would some millionaires give that much $$$ for a Honda instead of getting a Ferrari or Lambo? I think not.

What they should do is to make it more affordable and to be able to to compete with the Vettes, new "Supra", and upcomming GTR. To me, it's still a Honda. Of course, I'd love to own one. But if I'm to have that much $$$ to play around, I'd still get the Ferrari because of its class.
