Cool 2nd Generation TL

Recently, I purchased a '03 TL because it's the best damn sport luxury car out in the market and I needed a four-door sedan to transport my baby.

After I purchased it, I had some thoughts about what the next generation of TL looks like since the '03 is the last of its kind representing 2nd generation TLs.

I love my TL but can't help wonder what the next generation will look like. I've seen some prospective pix but they're all speculations.

Who lives out in the Marysville, Ohio area because you can help get some insider information on production for the '04. I've tried calling through the engineering department but it takes an act of congress to get through. Anyway, if anyone has new updates respond now!

if it looks anything like the spy photos of the '03 Accord Sedan, then the next gen TL is in trouble. Let's just pray the Honda gods wake up and don't ruin the TL.

Thanks for your responses. I was hoping that someone was as determined as me. I use to work in aerospace manufacturing so I know that someone out there knows the design for the next generation TL.

The spy photos of the TL, if they're legit, are hideous. But whatever, the Honda gods will realize that they made the same mistake with the 94-98 Accord design change. Any new photos, post the reply here.

What do you guys think? The 2nd generation TL has the best body design out in the market?

It's second generation because aesthetic changes not affecting the overall body and/or mechanical design does not constitute a generation change. Just like you and your sibling would be one generation but you niece and nephew would be the next generation.

So who has pixs and what are your opinions about the 2nd generation TLs?
