Please help me decide if I should buy porsche or the more superior nsx. Cheers.
Anyway, FWIW, I'm actually considering a '91 NSX w/ 30 K for $32K, one owner, full service records BUT it will be in addition to not in place of the '99 C2. I think they both are great cars in different categories and both have virtues.
The only thing that has held me back is that the NSX is red and I like to stay just a liitle more subdued - silver or black would have sealed the deal.

M3killa, what are you going to use the car for?
Daily driver or track car? The NSX is not a good daily driver, the 996 is. On the track they are very different. You can make an NSX into an insanely good track car, doing 1.34 around Laguna Seca with a good driver and some turbos, beating GT3s easily, but ... is it a track car you want?

I sort of figured you would not like that one.
The NSX I'm talking about has >490bhp and goes like a rocket :-)
