So they go back to basically the same headlights I have on my '09 TSX?!? I like my headlights but for this model it seems kind of backwards,
Of course one needs to wait until the finished product but overall it looks like it is going to be pretty boring,

The LEDs did get a bad review did they not. Good old fashioned HIDs or LEDs in a projector might be better for output/range/etc.
Ive seen a few new MDX's now and the grill looks great IMO.

You guys are killing me...it has like 50 pounds of camo on it and already complaints of "boring design" "No LEDs" etc. This is a heavily camouflaged test mule. Relax.

I really don't think they will remove the jewel eye led's. They usually put ugly headlights on test mules, check out the 2014 mdx test mule, it had halogen reflector headlights for crying out loud.

I highly doubt they will change the headlight so soon. If that was the intention, wouldn't it had been on the 2017 MDX along with the new grille?

I'm sure the headlights will be LEDs, they may change up the shape etc, but they made a big deal out of the "Jewel Eyes" thing and for me they work really well. I have no complaints. Nice to see the exhaust tips backs. I'm not so sure about the direction of the new grill. Looks really busy to me. Kind of looks like the Mercedes C Class grill. Have to see it in the flesh. But I'm more curious about drive trains. I'm pretty turned off by my ZF so I'm not sure I really care about the next TLX or not.

I cant get past the huge emblem.... seriously, wtf did make them think that it looked awesome... looks like lexus or infiniti is my next car if i decide to return my tlx at lease end. Maybe even a genesis.

They are not going to show new wheels on a test mule. But yes those crappy wheels have to go. But Acura has a long track record of ignoring customer feedback until it slaps them upside the head.

I'm good dude...just laughing at everyone complaining and jumping to conclusions about a car that has not even been released yet.

Uh...I'm new here, but that medallion on the front makes Flavor Flav's clock look small. And the grill produces an optical illusion that I do not find pleasing. I personally like how the "beak" has evolved. I like this less than the first one.

They better not get rid of the Jewel eye headlights, that would be a disaster, that's your signature! And please Acura Get rid of those horrid 4 cylinder rims!
Plus the tires need a huge upgrade.

These rims have been on the 4 cylinder for years now. They ain't getting rid of them til the 2018 comes out. This is a test mule. To expect new rims on a test mule is silly.
