I read in the local paper that the 2006 NSX will be scrapped in the US because it cannot meet the new more strict safety regulations... bye bye NSX.

Yeah but the whole driver's car thing is blurred, a true driver's car is one where the driver controls how the car acts, that is why the Lotus Elise is considered a true driver's car, it doesn't come with anything and you better know what you're doing before flooring it, the NSX has to many goodies so a half experienced driver can drive it like they've been doing it for years, it's the main reason the Evo gets chosen over the STi in comparos, it's more of a driver's car. Now as I said before the NSX is a great car, but it really isn't up to par with cars like the Modena 360, Ford GT, Carrera S, etc. that it is classified with, it's more in the MR2, Elise, and other lower (Elise is expensive but $60,000 is still a lot less than $90,000 and it's a Lotus which is known as an exotic manufacturer, unlike Honda) cost rear engined cars (even I wouldn't diss the NSX by adding Fiero in there, and I feel Hondas are overrated).
