I hear you! I went to the dealer intending to buy WDP. When I walked in to the dealership they had a NBP sitting there with chrome Type S wheels and tint. I was a goner.
It definitely takes a lot of work to keep it looking nice, but like you said it's worth it!

That's one of the not so great things about Honda's paint. It's soft and micro swirls are created easily, and very noticeable on darker colors. NBP is bad ass but I wouldn't want one as a DD cause I don't have the time/effort to keep it swirl free.

Mine is holding up pretty nice. Got it back in Jan 08. The only areas I think is tough to keep clean is behind the door handles and side skirts. Oh, and the pigeon shit just eats through the paint. I have a blotch on my trunk from it.
