Does Acura make a 2-seat convertable?

A friend of mine got to lap MIS with pace car driver in a Viper at 145mph; he said his son did the same in a Acura 2-seat convertable? Only 2-seater I can think of is the NSX which is hardtop only - right?

NXS are more comon in the targa top these days. Perhaps that was what he was in?

There are also a few NSX ragtops around, done by an aftermarket outfit.

That would have been one of the CART pace cars that they give laps to people in. Those were the only cars I got to see at Texas Motor Speedway earlier this year when CART cancelled the race. They had a Viper, Lexus IS 300 with an awesome exhaust on it, a Firebird, a Mustang, and an Acura NSX-T with the targa top off. So it's not quite a true convertible but I could see how someone could describe it as such.

BTW, the Viper was leaving all of the other cars in the dust.
