I had a NSX, and I can tell you that the Europeans have never been able to make a car that has the "driving feel and soul" of that.
Seriously, I have driven everything in that price range including every porsche model under $100k, Corvettes, the various BMW models, Audis, etc. And none of them have the feel of the NSX.
The only one that comes close is the Lotus Elise, but it takes me about 5 minutes just to contort my body properly to get into that car -- obviously I could never drive that as my daily driver which I did with my NSX.
