One very popular, all-new ride that people are looking forward to is the Acura NSX. Although it will bear little resemblance to the original daily driven supercar, this NSX is starting to catch my interest.
I have to admit, it's taken a long time for me to even care about this vehicle, but now seeing it in black and blue, I am starting to turn around and take notice.
Pebble Beach Concours Weekend
At this weekend's Pebble Beach event called The Quail — internally known as SnobFest [insert year] here at AutoSpies — Acura brought out two new NSX vehicles. While we've all seen enough of the red one that appears to be the same car rolled out at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show (NAIAS), the two new ones were debuted with good reason.
Acura wants to show off new options for the NSX and drum up interest for the mid-engine, hybrid supercar.
Take, for example, the carbon fiber roof, carbon fiber interior package, carbon fiber exterior package. In addition, the blue car is sporting never-before-seen wheels.
So, are these two new pre-production models getting YOU juiced up? Let us know in the comments!
