This conforms what I have been saying for years - this NSX (NC1) is 90% of the 918 for 10% of the price. Not a direct comparison, and not in the same league/class, but as close as you can currently get.

If the NSX 2.0 can be upgraded and tuned for more power then u have a japanese 918..... right now itʻs a diet 918

At about 1/9th the cost! Anorexic rather than diet I would think?

I'd love to drive a 918 and compare myself.

Great article!!

Have read this article some time ago in the magazine.

What struck me most is this paragraph:

Returning to eCoty HQ one evening on fast and flowing but slightly damp back roads, the NSX simply walked away from the Porsche 911 R. The big difference was that Henry Catchpole in the 911 was nibbling the limit and Dan Prosser in the NSX was wondering where on Earth it might be.

This day-to-day aspect of the NSX is often neglected.
You can have a 5000 HP car and be the fastest in a straight line, but if the car does not allow you to use that power in a sensible way, that it is basically wasted.

3 years out of production (2013 - 2015), the 918 Porsche is now worth about 2X it's original MSRP......appreciation of about four $200K NSX's.
