My main doubt though is: IQ wise can it hold its own with newer APS-C offerings from Sony and Fuji?

As long as you avoid high ISOs, pretty much. You don't get an option for silent shutter if that's important, but there is EFCS and silent shutter can be achieved with a software modification.

Unfortunately in my country Nikons and Canons are very sought after, and therefore, their prices are way above market prices in the US (mainly given the 100% import tariff for electronic goods). I guess the NX500 is cheap for our local standard because the demand is very low for a discontinued system here.

Very enlightening.
