::::::My Idea of TL Coupe, with PICS!!::::::

TL COUPE RWD (i wish..): notice the enhanced fenders (very similar to m3)... i kno i kno it looks blurry/a little crappy, but its the best i could do using paint!

notice the enhanced fenders, and shorter car length

similar to m3 wheels

eheh nice Photoshop work :-) Personally if Acura made a luxury sports coupe I would prefer it to be along the lines of the G35 or 350Z styling though...

Sweeet! I'd buy one. Wonder why Acura never made a TL coupe for this generation? Nice job!

Doesnt look bad at all. I imagined it looking horrible (not as an insult to your work, but the idea of a "TL coupe")

I've seen a lot of people making pics of TL Coupes and I really like the idea of sticking with the same general look of the 4 door TL. I love the look of the 3G and just taking a door out and making it shorter looks fantastic!

thanks, i was inspired a lot by the m3.. also image if the rear windows could also roll down, it would be the first coupe that allowed that!

Converitble?!?!

Alright you artists... Why doesn't Acura make a convertible for the mid-sized coupe market? Let's see your rendition of the TL gone coupe with a drop-top. Toyota makes the Camry , Nissan makes the 350 , BMW, Merc, etc. Who would want a 270hp car with cut lines and agressive looks and would also want to put the top down and cruise? Who knows?

I think that looks cool. If it had everything my TL has, just with 2 doors...I'd probably buy it. Wish Acura would at least give us the options for a sport/luxurious coupe. Not much in between the RSX and NSX I guess.

Dude that looks hot...Think you can make me one in Anthracite metallic? I'm not that tallented with the paint program...LOL
Seriously can you make me one using an Anthracite metallic TL?


Personally I think the 3rd Gen TL would be a great platform (aesthetically with the body and lines of the car) for a sport/luxury coupe.....maybe you should send this pic into acura...

just get me a side pic of the car u want. if u can, find a night time pic since its easier for me to blend stuff in (day time reflects too many objects, and i all i have is ms paint). lets me know w/e rims u want on it too

about sending this pic to acura, it probably wouldn't make a difference. i say that b/c im pretty sure that a designer had sketched the idea of a coupe b4 the car even came out in 04....

acura really needs a coupe at this point in time. infiniti has the market locked with the g35 and now acura is discontinuing the RSX, they need a coupe. plus, it would just look sick.

Here is a pic I found a while back. It was entitled 2006 Acura CL Prototype. This almost looks real doesn't it?


Here's another rendition:

If I remember correctly, those weren't prototypes. Those were p-chops that other people on this board did.

Not sure who did the first one. The second one was done by a memeber named jaydef03.

American Honda/Acura definately needs to take a look at these Photoshop pics...

Very nice!!!!

Reminds me of what the 6thgen Accord Coupe should've been.

It be awesome to see the CL return. It can even stay FWD.

But Honda/Acura does need a Midsize Sporty Coupe.

i agree with the beginning of what you said, who wouldn't love to have a rwd? it would also be hot to have a lsd that can switch from rwd to awd at the touch of a button for harsher weather conditions... if this were possible, then the new skyline would have some pretty good competition!
