Interesting new prototype

Acura just sent me an email boasting of a new prototype cross over.
Some of you may have already seen it at the NY Auto show

Wow... very impressive. Looks better than the MDX more of a competer with the FX line of infinitis. Me likes, but if we know Acura well, they will throw in a weak ass engine in there compared to the rest.

Looks pretty cool! As long as the production model looks the same, those headlights are cool

I think it looks pretty cool too. I think the rear door handles are in the contour of the body.
