Yes, I agree. It was the first of its kind for the NA1 and yes, it was quite expensive for the time.
The new one just lacks the same charisma. Yes, it's a fancy hybrid, but that doesn't really talk to people the way Honda thought it would (911R for reference).
I'm sure the 458 is much more of a live wire compared to the new NSX.
Enjoy!
