well for the most part the TL didn't stray too far from the concept. the cross drilled would have been nice. but those rear view side mirror cameras are ugly. i would prefer regular mirrors.

I've always been fond of the K car... Anyway, regarding the TL, I really like the the line in the side in comparison to the handles (very low profile), but the front looks too much like the TSX. I like the back, looks clean. The round tail lights are pretty cool tho. I agree that the camera mirrors are something you'd see on a 1998 concept car for Mercury or something, you cannot replace the prespective of mirrors with cameras and moniters.

I like the back-end better than the way it is now, I think. Ah nuts, I can't make up my mind.
