They are nice looking. Bit pricey, but they are nice looking.

What kind of NSX's do you have over there that you can call em slow? I know that over here they are about as fast as cars come.

A mid-engine will give you more traction off the line than a front engine setup, and the lack of a propshaft's inertial mass means that the "all important" gearchange will be slightly quicker and easier. I do agree though if all you buy a NSX for is drag racing that you are selling it way short of it's ability.



Over here at least, NSX's are incredible value for money secondhand and I can't see it being any worse in the states, I say go for it
