I was lucky to be invited to the rollout of the original NSX back in the day. The V.P. of sales at a company I worked for knew that I was a car buff and received a pass for him and a guest to the event. I still have the small framed photo in front of a silver NSX. Guess I should post that here some time.

Late 2015 as MY2016. But, that isn't official.

This will be the first time the NSX goes hybrid, powered by a conventional V6 engine and two electric motors to make the supercar an all-wheel drive performance machine.
...and ^^^ this is why Acura needs to make SH-AWD standard across its lineup.  If you claim to be doing something amazing, own it and give consumers a reason to come spend their hard-earned money on 24 month leases at 0.24% ;D
