Did you witnessed me saying the Ferrari dashes were better, worse or whatever at that time. People asked for a porsche with a bar interior, and I showed them. When the 911 became a car that could be used daily the NSX was already in the market for almost a decade. And the NSX wasn't most likely the first to be a every day sports car.
The NSX really did have a very nice interior. Good design, excellent materials (just about everything covered in leather as standard). It withstands the test of time quite well. The 997 is finally up to scratch, but only if you opt for the $$ leather packages. Design-wise, this Panamera looks like a step back, and excessively cluttered.
