About a year ago I sold my '91 Carrera 4 in order to fund my new house. For the past few months, I've been kicking around the idea of getting another sports car. I'm undecided between the NSX and the 348, both of early '90s vintage. As a background, I'm a huge Honda fan. I have a Civic race car for the SCCA Improved Touring C class, and a Honda CBR600F4i. So of course I'm leaning toward the brilliant NSX. My only question is - does this car get the kind of recognition that a Ferrari gets?
After quizzing many friends who weren't into cars, the general response seems to be that not many people in the world, besides the true car fanatics, know what an NSX really is.
Between the NSX and the Ferrari, I would of course pick the NSX as the better engineered, faster, and more reliable car. But is it exotic?
I know that this type of thing shouldn't really matter, but you do buy a lot of prestige when you buy a Ferrari.
