The NSX hardly had any noteworthy screen time, but Ludacris's character had an NSX in the second one (with an LV-esque paintjob that matched his pickup truck), though it ended up not being in the movie.

You forgot the Porsche Cayman in part 4. The G35 is a luxury car and those muscle cars aren't cheap/abundant. It's not about what models parts 4/5 had in common with parts 1/2... it's more about what it DIDN'T have - riced out/liveried cars everywhere - and how they were presented. Parts 1/2 were about quantity; 4/5 about quality. The G35 was probably one of the ricier ones but was very downplayed with very limited shots not blatantly showing it (I searched with scrutiny for full real life shots from outside of the movie because I also owned a G; I could hardly tell it was red in the film because heavy post processing dulled its presence). The collection of cars presented in parts 4/5 gave a sense of something you'd find in a collector's auto gallery in which the BRZ would fit better because of its extra creature comforts.
