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!

Finally a different color than red on red. Love the other color combos. Too bad Acura pushed full production to spring of 2016. So, another delay to further tarnish the intro of this car. Even as an Acura fan, I have to admit that many people just don't care anymore or are starting to not care, including myself.

Personally, my interest level went from zero to something now that I've seen the other colors and we're getting closer.

With others cars there has been ton of excitement for the launch. With this one I think it's going to really come down to how well it drives. If it's a monster, word will get out and dealers will be overwhelmed with NSX demand. If it's a dog, it'll flop hard.

The black one looks wicked. Overall it looks very good. The downside is the drab and too-practical looking interior. There's nothing special or hardcore about it. It seems more comfortable GT than supercar.

Nice to see other colors, they should debut it in blue with those wheels. Would be kind of neat, next version they can debut in white since the first one was red :). Other than the nose it is pretty goods looking, although not jaw dropping or even super cool like the first one was. Interior wise it seems like the Japanese car manufacturers (other than Lexus - love the new RC interior design minus some of the questionable finishes) all think we want a center console that looks like a cheap boombox from the 90s. Unfortunately Acura thinks NSX customers want this as well.

Beautiful car except for the gaudy, over-extended side mirrors
