New MDX, RDX, and TL-S at Crest Acura..

So i went to crest acura in syracuse to get my left headlight fixed (it flirts with other cars by flickering its left eye, then shutting off). their dealership isn't that big but I decided to go to the showroom while i wait (I'm from rallye acura) and I must say, the new mdx is quite impressive, as with the rdx. i really like where acura is going

here are some pics i took of the mdx





















and here's my ride

I like the looks of everything but the wheels on the Type-S. WTF was Acura thinking and why didn't they consult me? I guess it's a moot point, because my '04 6MT is running fine and only 10% of the way to 300k. I hope when I hit 300k, a V10 6MT RL is available for me to upgrade to!

not feeling any of the cars...I just don't like the changes on the 07 TL...kind of Altimaish...IMO

I will be getting those smoke sidemarkers though..

MDX WTF? I've owned an MDX, and prefer the 06 older, those look so cheap on the outside..Oh well I will stick with my 06 TL and love it!

Those wheels about 16 inches. Look at the huge fender gap. The fact that they're so fugly just adds insult to the injury. WTF was Acura thinking?
