But it only has 277hp to the tires and is not built to go in a straight line. It is also a 13 year old car with no squeaks and rattles and still smells new. The NSX does everything exceptionally well. If I was going on a long country drive through some twisty back roads I would pick the NSX. If I was going out to stomp a local friend at the drags I would take the Vette. As for taking one out to get my daily fix on adrenaline...take your pick. 
When I drive either one my heart feels like it wants to jump out of my chest. 
They are both great cars, they just go about being great in two different ways.
