Acura Gives Its No. 93 ARX-06 a Special “Thank You” Livery

Acura is celebrating the end of its current IMSA program with a special No. 93 ARX-06 livery honoring a decade of victories, championships and drivers.

Acura is preparing to close an important chapter in its IMSA history with a special Acura ARX-06 livery for the final two races of the 2026 WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. The No. 93 Meyer Shank Racing prototype will carry the commemorative design at Indianapolis and Road Atlanta.

The livery celebrates Acura’s 10-year involvement in IMSA competition across the NSX GT3, ARX-05 and ARX-06. The manufacturer announced in April that it would pause its GTP program after the 2026 season.

Rather than simply changing the car’s colors, Acura has turned the design into a visual tribute to the people and achievements that shaped its decade in North American sports car racing.

The No. 93 Carries a Decade of Acura History

The new design highlights drivers, teams, circuits and championship achievements from Acura’s IMSA program. Names and references to the cars that helped build the manufacturer’s record are incorporated directly into the bodywork.

Acura’s decade-long run produced 14 team, driver and manufacturer championships, 33 race victories and 43 pole positions. The brand also won its class at all four major North American sports car races, including three overall victories in the Rolex 24 at Daytona.

The No. 93 Acura Meyer Shank Racing ARX-06 receives a special “Thank You” design celebrating Acura’s 10 years in IMSA.

The livery is therefore much more than a one-off visual change. It effectively turns the prototype into a rolling record of Acura’s accomplishments across three generations of race cars.

That history includes the NSX GT3, the championship-winning ARX-05 DPi and the current hybrid-powered ARX-06 GTP machine.

Acura’s Final IMSA Races Begin at Indianapolis

The special Acura ARX-06 will make its competition debut in the new livery at the TireRack.com Battle on the Bricks at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

The No. 93 will then carry the same design into the season finale, Petit Le Mans at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta. Those two events will mark the final appearances of Acura’s current factory GTP program.

Acura will debut its commemorative livery at Indianapolis before taking the design to the final IMSA race at Road Atlanta.

The timing gives Acura one last opportunity to add to its record before stepping away from the championship.

The No. 93 has also been one of the strongest Acura entries in recent seasons. The car earned overall victory at Long Beach earlier this year with Renger van der Zande and Nick Yelloly, adding another major result to the program’s final season.

Renger van der Zande and Nick Yelloly Carry the Torch

The No. 93 entry will be driven by Renger van der Zande and Nick Yelloly during the final races of the campaign.

The pair have been central to Acura Meyer Shank Racing’s recent success, including the Long Beach victory earlier this season. The No. 93 Acura also entered 2026 as a major part of the manufacturer’s two-car GTP effort.

Renger van der Zande and Nick Yelloly will drive the commemorative No. 93 Acura ARX-06 in the final two rounds of the 2026 IMSA season.

The final races could therefore add another chapter to an already significant Acura record. The team still has the opportunity to increase its win and championship totals before the program officially pauses.

A Final Tribute to Acura’s IMSA Era

The Acura ARX-06 “Thank You” livery represents the end of a decade that connected Acura’s road-car identity with some of the biggest endurance races in North America.

From the NSX GT3 to the ARX-05 and now the hybrid ARX-06, Acura built a substantial racing legacy in IMSA. The commemorative design puts that entire story onto one final race car.

Moreover, the decision to run the livery at both Indianapolis and Petit Le Mans gives fans two final opportunities to see the No. 93 in Acura’s current GTP era.

When the season ends at Road Atlanta, the ARX-06 will leave the IMSA grid for the time being. Until then, Acura’s goal is to let its final two races celebrate everything the program achieved over the past 10 years.
