That's true but Acura could be heading in that direction. The 09 TLs could probably take on the RL front end design.... Look at Audi all their cars have just about the same front end design... IMO

This Guy is high. And Acura isnt dumb enough to take on a shape of a Car which is not even selling well in North America. The 08 will probably stay the same. im thinking that they wont even touch it a bit since the Newer design is due in 09 and will surprise every 1 like the 3G did. Im afraid they dont over do it. The concept Sedan looks ugly from the Back.

Yeah that's definitely an RL. The TL is exactly like the 07's except I think there were some new/new named colors or something minor. Oh and sorry, it doesn't look like an IS350

You don't know what the hell you talking about ..... The RL is not doing well because it is too expensive!!!! The RL has a more aggressive look and stance than the TL.... So, it would not be dumb for Acura to head in that direction... I do have an 06 MT TL and I love it but if they were to refine the shape to that of the RLfor 09, I will be getting one....

That's exactly what I am saying..... The front end is HOT.... I think if they change the TL front end to that of the RL with a few mod to the grill, the TL would be on fire like that BIG BLUNT I am smoking!!!!!

I have no idea WHAT you guys are talking about.

If this pic is an RL - is sure isn't an '08.

And we already know it's not an '08 TL.




So what the hell is it? An '09 RL? An '09 TL? A concept? What?

Also, this thing looks Bad Ass. Look at the stance - agressively forward and wide. And the fender flare is awesome. The grill needs a little work but I could live with it.

Too much in this crowd. It's clouded your thinking and your judgement.

Yep. It's listed there as a "RL-A Spec Concept" from 2005.

That's what I was talking about. I was not saying that it was an 08 TL.. I know it's an RL but what I was saying is that the 09 TL should take on the front end design and stance of the RL.... Those guys need a wif of this to clear their heads...

I can see how it looks like an IS350.. but only in the bumper and the "smile" from the center area.

Is it just me or does that center of the grill look like an oversized chrystler sebring badge...
