It's a tough decision. There are pros and cons to both. I just sold a 2015 Alpha 9 and there are many things you do give up such as being able to use the GT-R for everything in all sorts of weather conditions and not worry or feel bad about it. There's no question the NSX is not a practical every day car due to the lack of a usable trunk, back seat, and storage compartments. My opinion after driving 400 miles home in the NSX is that it is also not the best road trip car between the two. High speed stability also goes to the GT-R. In triple digit speeds, the NSX is a little scary at times compared to no drama, smooth sailing in the GT-R. I would say, the NSX is comparable to my old S2000 where a second car is needed for daily driving whereas I had no problem using the GT-R as a DD.


That said, the NSX is much more balanced and feels more nimble even though both cars are similar in weight. Even my passengers have noticed that difference between the two. Nsx is a fun car and definitely better to look at than the R35. Would recommend that you consider what you'd be giving up before making the switch. I don't regret making the switch but did sacrifice some things in doing so.
