POSSIBLE 3rd GENERATION CL?

POSSIBLE 3rd GENERATION CL?
Has anyone noticed the new Accord Coupe concept that was shown at the Detroit auto Show?
Who's not to say that the CL may make a comback. Just imagine the (A) instead of the (H) on the grill.
Here's the copy of the article with a link to the picture.
Honda Accord Coupe Concept
Honda debuted a sleek new Accord Coupe Concept that officials said closely resembles the 2008 Accord Coupe that arrives in showrooms this fall. With a long hood, 6-sided grille, projector headlights, sculpted lower body and quad exhaust outlets integrated in the lower bumper, the silver Accord Coupe Concept represents what Honda officials describe as a more emotional design. Another interesting design element is that the C-pillars are very narrow compared to what is typical for a coupe which will improve rear-quarter visibility for the driver. The new-generation 5-passenger Accord Coupe will be “the boldest, roomiest, most-refined and exhilarating car in the segment,” said John Mendel, senior vice president of automobile operations at American Honda Motor Co.

They dropped the CL due to 'slow sales' & now they are claiming that the coupe market is about to be hot again w/the release of the Acc coupe. I'm sure that they are thinking about it due to the fact that as soon as they dropped it ... everybody was asking for it!
Like you said, who knows if it's coming back but there's no doubt that somehow there will be another coupe in Acura's future line up.....

Thats one hot looking coupe if you ask me. However, if Acura wants to compete with the likes of BMW and such, they'd better rethink their FWD chassis or just jump head first into it with SH-AWD and call it a day. If Acura were to introduce another luxury coupe to replace the CL it will likely be a flop as long as it's FWD. They are all a bunch of FWD nazis over there.
