Anyone gone yet and seen the TL concept?

 

no, but i went to the dc auto show where they had several TL's laying all around. lots of people oooing over them

 

No, but I'm planning on driving three hours to Detroit next weekend to see the A-spec concept at the NAIAS.

 

I went.
I saw.
I took photos.



Next you'll be asking me to share.
(Gimme a half a day.)

 

Yup, and I posted pics

The A-Spec is way too "bling bling" for me, but 300+ hp is awesome.

 

Okay, I got photo's, but I don't have time to do all the cropping, etc.

I have taken the photos (there are 11 of them) and ZIP'ed them up into one big file that's 18Mb.

The files are 4MPixel images.
They have a reasonable picture of the steering wheel, the rims, the rear spoiler (with camera).

Sorry I didn't have time for better presentation...

Hey Nick, thanks a lot for the zip file. Those pics are awesome. I'm not sold on the car's looks, but boy would I love to take it for a spin on Mulholland Drive.

 

When you figure out what line to give the sales guy to let you take it for a spin... Let me know; I'll be next in line...

I did like the way that the rear-view camera was integrated above the Acura logo on the rear - kinda looks like a keyhole..

The wheels were pretty, but I'm not sure that it would ever go on sale with those wheels, nor if I would want them (21" rubber gets expensive, and I average 25K+ per year.) The brakes however looked AWESOME.

I tried to show in the photos that both the front and rear bumpers were one solid piece; not a stuck-on option.

Other than the seats; it doesn't look like the changed the interior much.

The steering wheel looked like the insert was carbon fibre; but in the pictures is has more of a wood color. I would really have liked to take better pictures of it, but it was up on a stand and I didn't want to get into trouble. Also, the wife was complaining that she was bored and why did I have to look at this car when I already had one.

The paint looks great in the photos, but in person it was a little too metalic for my taste.

Still, it will be very nice to see how much of this makes it into manufacturing...
