A friend of mine was looking to buy a nice sports car and was looking into either a Viper or a NSX... He ended up getting a Viper then a year or two later he got the NSX and got a comptech super charger package and it was well over 500 HP when he was done weighing twice as less then the Viper he had that was 550 stock..
Its all in what fits your style and how you can trick it out if you don't like one little thing about the car.. Everything these days can be tailored to your needs.

Tylo, no offense, but almost every claim in your post here, every single sentence, is wrong, lol. And I say that in a fun way in that you're trying to help out, not in a mean-GFY way trying to pick on you, I promise.
I know because my first NSX had a Comptech s/c kit on it a few years ago, serviced by Comptech themselves in the Bay Area, so it's something I have experience with. But your intentions are good, the NSX is knocked by idiots all too often, who have no time behind the wheel. In stock form, 1997+, it turns a 4.8 time to 60mph, and a 13.2 second 1/4 mile. Same as any stock 911 Carrera, C5 Vette, M3, M5, etc.
The older ones (pre-97) were much slower cars, so I don't place the blame solely at the feet of those claiming the NSX is "slow". They just don't know any better.
Bottom line is that you have to drive all the cars on these sorts of shopping lists, hard, to figure out which one is "best" for your needs. No doubt about it.
And thanks for trying to pimp the NSX, good to see.
