I still absolutely love the ND and if money was no problem I'd get one.

This is me too. Too small of proportions. Closer to the 86 size, and in a true hardtop then I would have bought it. The proportions and looks are great.
To add more...
For sporty-car buyers, the lightweight cars are not on their registry. They just want power and looks. A subgroup wants performance too, but weight may not be a factor. Another subgroup sees small, low, sports cars as death traps like many non-sports car shoppers who want giant SUV's for safety. These tanks can't stop too fast or handle an evasive maneuver too well. Outside of the Tesla Model X, the rollover resistance is so poor with these SUV's that they can barely be called safe.
