I was looking at that car on Autotader last week 
I would like to think that I would consider one in a few months time.
I don't think that the speed thing would bother me too much - as has been said I think the experience would more than make up for any relative lack of perceived speed. In addition NSX's have more like 310bhp than the 270 officially quoted.
I have to say the thought of a bigger S2000 appeals to me massively. If it could retain that light feel, lack of understeer I think I would consider one very seriously.
What I would find difficult to get past would be the price for the year of the car. I could get a decent 911 Carrera with GT kit and X50 power kit for less than an NSX.
The limited number they were produced in helps massively with the residuals, but I rarely see a nice NSX for less than

Have you ever seen a Type R for sale, Ian?
The Type-R and the prices it commands (especially in Japan) I know will get some people very agitated....but it is like the 'cooking' NSX issue, magnified - even rarer, even fewer people 'get it' and to many, an outrageous amount of money for an 'old' car.
Typically, a 1992-1995 (NA1 - 3.0) NSX-R now will cost
