2009 Acura TL shows its face - AWD confirmed - Page 2

Haz Mat · 07-11-2008, 10:20 PM

I think it looks great, but it's not a real world pic so I'll have to see more of it. I'm not disappointed at all though like I thought I would be.

nice find

***xRivalNightTime*** · 07-11-2008, 11:53 PM

I personaly hated the new looks of the TSX in pictures, but as soon as I saw it out on the street, I fell in love. hahaha.

As for the looks of this TL, it looks ass ugly. Maybe my mind will change again when I see it in person.

car gets weirder and weirder as time goes by.

HTX · 07-12-2008, 12:06 AM

wtf is honda doing!?! Yeah it looks like a big rip off of the lexus. Look at the side window lines... Whats up with the front fenders too? maybe it will have the good under the hood to somewhat justify this mess. Take the new powertrain and put it in the previous tl chassis and it will be teh shit.

skwallee · 07-12-2008, 03:35 AM

i like it to be honest

SiCivic83 · 07-12-2008, 04:23 AM

Ugly just like the rest of the Acura lineup.

^ probably hired designers who went to the same art school. The guys probably worked on a group assignment together and came up with this design as their final entry.

07 fg2 · 07-12-2008, 07:30 AM

could you imagine what an rsx would look like if they brought it back now?

dnv · 07-12-2008, 07:47 AM

I hate that chrome on the front-end..

20strong · 07-12-2008, 08:40 AM

That car is ugly, I dont know what else to say that front end is horrible. The headlights are cool though.

**ImTheVoiceOfGod** · 07-12-2008, 08:49 AM

For 300AWD I might be able to forgive.... or mod... the grill

06CivEXJon · 07-12-2008, 08:03 PM

Grotti. I dont like how it has just two fender bulges and none in the rear makes i look awkward. thats like having an STI with rear bulges and none n the front for wider tires. Then again the R34 Skyline had only two bulging fenders in the rear.

Burrcold · 07-13-2008, 06:00 PM

It's pretty sad when Acura's nicest looking car is the CDM CSX (Civic).

**sickyute** · 07-13-2008, 06:10 PM

waiting on performance specs and driving dynamics to get final.

on the looks. like it a lot.

TL>GS from a dollar point of view. GS IMO is overpriced when compared to the TL for what u get.
