Evolution Imports would import an NSX-R if...

Yes, I'm sure I'm the only person here still having fun in his NSX.

BTW, when you talk about nostalgia, the middle-aged men in the United States may be buying Corvettes and Mustangs because those were the cars that were being modded and raced in their youth. But 20-30 years from now, the men who are middle aged will remember the cars that are being modded and raced today - and many of those cars are made by Honda.

nsxstasy,
no, I was not saying that and I think it was pretty clear. I was saying that you are one of the very few original buyers ('90, '91 and I bet '92) that bought new and never upgraded to something else. This because you can still get a lot of fun out of the NSX toy even if you have probably the economical possibility to buy other newer cars.

The nostalgia theme was already pointed out by Lud. In 25 years, if Honda will be able to keep up a sporty image (as Ferrari and Porsche did), people will do that.
Unfortunately, at the moment, they aren't. IMHO.

Even today, twelve years after the introduction of the NSX, I don't think there is anything better for the price. Sure, there are less-expensive (Z06) and similar-priced (Viper) cars with higher horsepower that can post quicker straight-line numbers and be competitive around a racetrack. But I don't think you can get a car that is clearly superior to the NSX overall without spending at least 50 percent more for something like a 996 Turbo or a 360 Modena, and neither of those cars is of much interest to me.
