Whoa whoa whoa, the NSX is an excellent performance machine! We can treat him the same, it's not like BMW is competing against the NSX or anything. Remember, BMW has no supercar...why oh why was the Nazca C2 never produced![?|]

8 series.... dead for what 8 years?
Z8.............dead now.

What I meant to say was a mid-engined supercar, I mean a majority of supercars have this layout because it is superior in terms of handling.

The 8 series is too heavy. Even in the excellent 850csi form, the car is more luxury GT than true sports car.

The Z8 is also a little heavy, and a convertible, but has similar #s compared to the 3.2 liter 6 spd. NSX.

Not exactly it lives on but in its new form not like the one braut has in his sig, and not like the one mspeed has in his avatar.

Cars arnt dead till they are crushed
Other than new headlights, some aerodynamic changes to the front spoiler, skirts, and rear, and a few other minor changes, the current NSX (re-design expected any time between now and next year, specs not confirmed) is essentially the same as the 1997-on 3.2 liter six speed and the original 1991, which is and was a supercar in the same way the BMW M1 is and was a supercar.

There are also some miconceptions about the NSX price and performance. A new one can be had for $80k, but recently there was a sick lease deal ($799 a month). However, most of the approx. 8000 NSX in the US are early cars that trade in the $28-35k range. I get sick of people quoting $30k 13-year-old NSX performance data and lamenting a $90k sticker price.

Also understand that the NSX is considerably faster at high speeds than its 0-60 time belies, particularly for the 5-spd cars. The 3.2/6spd coupe runs a 4.5 0-60 mph and high 12 second quarter mile stock. Too bad most (approx. 98%) of those cars are targas, which have less structural rigidity and extra weight, and thus run 4.8/13.1.

On a road course they are a match for many cars.

I still dont think the nsx is a supercar its no faster than a zo6

I think a super car is like there: enzo ferrari, Lambo Murci...., F50, mclaren f1

The other cars like lambo gallardo and 360 modena NSX , corvette, new 6(not my favorit) are just very nice fast 2 doors.

The zo6 corvette is flat out raw power for a heck of a good price.
