I'm only 5'10" so my comparison point isn't great. I do think the NSX had the best driving position I've been in, but I have only driven a couple of hours in the 370Z. The Z seats are more secure, but a little too grippy for me and the bolsters a little hard.

The Z is as fast or faster than an NSX in a straight line, but visibility is poorer. Handling on an NSX is like driving a go cart, but it is very low (mine was slightly lowered) so the Z is a little easier to get in/out of. I'd say there is a little more roof clearance in the Z but I didn't pay particular attention to that.

Mainly the NSX is a 19 year old design, which means it lacks a lot taken for granted today, such as CD player/iPod integration, keyless entry/start, navigation, auto locks, etc.

However, it is still an exotic, hand built car.
