The NSX compared to the EVO feels "sterile".

That is too dam

!!! One of my good friends is selling his modded to all hell '95 RX-7 because of reliability issues. I keep telling him to consider the evo, but he is set on a NSX. He claims there IS NO WAY IN HELL that a 30K evo could ever come to close to comparing to a NSX -- sh*t that is an 80K car man!

Any possible way I could get you to talk to him.

Ha!! Do you guys think I actually took pics of my '91 Geo Storm?

I wish I had pics on my HD of the '66 Dodge Coronet that I sold a couple months before buying the EVO. I could answer "yes" to those punks that would copy the commercial and ask me "is that a Hemi?". Now I have to deal with the "Is that a real EVO" and "How do you like it " comments at signals instead!!

NSX is more reliable in the long run than a Evo. Why would I say that? Honda N/A vs. Mitsubishi turbo charged with HIGH boost. You'd be the judge on which car is going to have problems first.

I don't think anyone would argue that either. As long as the 60K mile service,timing belt and water pump replacement has been done (not cheap); the car will run reliably for a very very very long time. There are quite a few NSX owners with 150K+ miles that still run like they just came off the showroom floor.
