Long Beach Blue was available from 2002 to 2005, and only 88 cars were made.

The color is named for the Long Beach Grand Prix, of which Acura is the title sponsor.

The rest of the car remains largely the same as the 2020 model year.

The car retains its turbocharged V6 engine and sophisticated hybrid system.

This means that the 2021 NSX should still be a wickedly fast supercar.
