I'm just saying, I'd like to see some. I personally haven't seen any really high horsepower NSXs. That's all.

Well, again, I'm assuming. Especially because the NSX will have to make a lot more power to pull from a Z06 like that. At the end of the day, there is no replacement for displacement. Even stock for stock they don't compare as well as you are stating. That's a proven fact, not something that I "Witnessed". Again, just saying.

And at the end of the day, it's still a $125,000 (Last time I looked, probably less now) Honda. I don't find them exciting, and honestly that's my opinion.
