I just looked up the roster in the NY Times, and it doesn't seem to be anywhere to be found....just the TSX.

It's obviously not going to be the production model though because it's likely not to be released until October. I believe the "unvieling" would actually be tonight as I think they are doing a black tie event similar to the one in Philadelphia.
edit: I'm actually pissed at this moment because they have the tsx listed as debut on the autoshow website and not the TL... I'm going to give the dealers a call right now.. I just talked to these people last week. The tsx looks fugly as hell... Mazda anyone?

I will point out that when Honda redesigned the Accord last year, it was NOT at the NY auto show.
We probably won't see anything until the summer

^^ why would they say it's GOING to be released if it already HAS been released though?
I think it's just dealers trying to get you excited and coming back to their store.

Source needed, or you will be written off as just some dude trying to add fuel to this anticipation fire.

Impossible to tell the difference. If I had a chance to see the new TL before everyone else, as much as I would like to, I couldn't just go out and proclaim the guy who showed me the car and get him fired. If I was just a dude "adding fuel to this anticipation fire" you couldn't tell the difference.

TSX and RL are the only Acura models being introduced at the NY show.
By the way, the cockpit of the new TSX looks like the RL/M35. Hoepfully the dash of the new TL will be just as cool.

My TL can do this, too!
This article on the TSX states that the TSX is "still not as long or tall as the TL, but the made-in-Japan TSX is now 0.2 in. wider than its V6-powered brother."
I assume they're speaking of the 3G TL. Wonder how wide the 4G TL is going to be? My guess: sexy wide!

When they debut, they're ready to SELL!
That means they will very shortly be on the showroom floors
Production is sometimes 6 months before the debut, if not longer.

Just came back from the NY auto show. Confirmed, There is no 4G TL. I dont understand why Acura couldnt release a concept version to give us a taste on what it looks like. Looks like they missed a great opportunity to generate buzz and pre-sales on the car.
