(No) Surprise! Acura NSX Rollout is Delayed Again
This is the risk you run when you give the hype machine a final end date. Like a Kanye West or Lil Wayne album, yet another delay has struck the Acura NSX. After literally years of testing, endless teasers and talk, and several push-backs, the NSX was scheduled to finally reach showrooms at the end of 2015. But according to a new Edmunds report, that’s not the real timeline.
“The goal was to get the NSX to a performance level we figured customers would be happy with,”Acura spokesman Chuck Schifsky told Edmunds in an interview. “So it has taken a little bit longer, but not a significant amount of time. … Customers are definitely willing to wait to make sure the car is right.”
The tentative new estimated time of arrival is the first quarter of 2016, but we’ll believe that when we see tire on tile. This still hasn’t stopped the orders from flooding in.
“The interest in this car already is so high people are already making deals with dealers to get the first cars sight unseen,” Schifsky said.
It’s hard to blame ’em. Pair the cars legendary status with new-age looks and technology, and the arrows all point to one hell of a vehicle. Guess we’ll just have to wait a little longer to find out.
