NSX vs 996 Turbo?
Discussion
Having, owned and driven a few NSXs, I would say the performance is more akin to that of a Boxster and not a full fat 911...never mind a turbo.
For high days, tours, the noise, rarity and mid paced blasts ...NSX every time. (This would be my choice)
For the ultra bargain super car ...the 911 Turbo...(also not bad looking in dark colours with a bit of aero kit)
Budget wise, for equivalent age cars the NSX will be 50% more expensive

Aren't all three approx. the same performance wise - 0-60 in around 5 secs, 170 top end?For high days, tours, the noise, rarity and mid paced blasts ...NSX every time. (This would be my choice)

Had both, NSX every time.
They aren't really in the same price range though unless you're considering an import or auto NSX. A good manual is £50k minimum.
This makes me super-sad. I came close to blowing my life savings one when they were £20k but did something else instead, now I'll never afford one. They aren't really in the same price range though unless you're considering an import or auto NSX. A good manual is £50k minimum.

I've always wondered about NSX'. They are power limited due to the Japanese manufacture agreement, with a 3.2l of displacement I imagine the engine is severely strangled by Honda. I'm sure I've seen a tuning package somewhere which gives the car a considerable power increase whilst still being N/A.
Point being, I'd choose the NSX and turn the power up a touch
