Exactly, what is so bad about the NSX when compared to the old NSX?

The original NSX's proportions help make it look even smaller than it actually is - very low bonnet and decklid lines mean pretty much everything but the cabin is close to the floor.

The new one doesn't quite have that benefit (though as you can see from the second image I posted above, the bonnet line really isn't very high), and it is slightly longer, slightly taller and a reasonable chunk wider than the original, but I was surprised how compact it was. From behind the wheel it doesn't feel excessively wide either, and it has a very Honda low scuttle (though again, not quite to the same extent as the original NSX).

I'm having trouble reconciling this:

I think it may just be an optical illusion that the GTR is a bit farther away.


Edit:

Yea

@Danoff In addition to the GTR being further away, the photographer used a wide angle lens which stretches the perspective, especially towards the edge of the frame.
