I think the most important thing people entirely fail to realize is, exotic cars tend to be "ahead of their time," whereas the old NSX was way ahead of its time, so is this new one.
I never understand why people complain about how something new was not like it was before, like how the new GT-R is not like the old ones, how the new Z cars are not like the old Z cars, how the new Civic Si is nothing like the Type-Rs etc. etc.
The market has to move forward, technology has to move forward, things change. If things never changed, automotive technology would still be stuck in the 90s.
