Should I switch from Cayman 2.7 late07 to NSX 2005?

In my country, there is a law stating that you cannot import in a car more than 3 years old. This is therefore the final year I can buy an NSX from Japan (NSX ceased production 2005) and register it, and it might well be the ONLY manual NSX in the country forever.

Well I found one, after freight and markups by the importer, it would be exactly the same price as a brand new Cayman S.

Year - December 2005
Displacement - 3,200cc
Steering - Right Hand Drive
Mileage - 14,000km
Transmission - 6 Speed Manual
Exterior Colour - Red
Chassis No - ABA-NA2-2000066

This is very very sweet. I've always dreamed of owning an NSX. Because by the time I was in a position to buy a car for myself instead of for my family, 2007, they did not make NSXes anymore and I bought the Cayman instead, which is in itself very much an NSX.

But having been driven in an NSX I felt that the Cayman, is really a modern day NSX, so dreams-wise I sorta got my dream car now in substance if not in form in the Cayman.

I'm not looking to you guys for a decision, but more, some opinions which might make my decision easier.
