Admin please remove this if it still exists, I just had no luck finding it and the thread starter button was easier to find.

Timmy...I gave it a 9 because I couldn't see the front and I find the rear deck is a bit too short and almost looks like a hatch.

That being said, it is a tremendously good design and more than we'll likely see from Acura! I also LOVE the wheels!

Congrats and keep up the great work....

I agree with Weather mostly. I like it but the rear deck is a bit short. Reminds me of the 2003 Mercedes-Benz C230 Hatchback.

Acura should fire all their lead designers and hire you, timmy

^^ I have been saying this all along! I am aware that it can be complex to design a car that also meets the various safety standards and meets the wind tunnel tests....however, most car companies are able to pull these off, yet Acura is struggling.

I will say that they have gotten better as of late but still, Timmy18 keeps hitting homeruns time and time again!

Yupp that's it.


Thanks guys! The rear trunk is a bit short. Much like the F-Type but with a larger duckbill lid. So i guess it is more like the Mercedes.

I attempted a front side view but it wasn't being easy (Same pull and stretch method of TLX skin) but I'll give it another go soon.

But the focal points here are the entire rear end, long sloping body lines and the far forward A pillar with an axle to dash gap of a true RWD sports car (because it is).

Love the use of the TL-S bumper + quads. Best rear end from Acura ever, next to the TLX prototype's

Based on the view given, I think it's a sexy design and I've always preferred coupes to sedans but that's not always an option. I would love to see the front end because as much as I like the front end of the TLX (even the beak), I'd love to see it jazzed up a little with more of a factory air dam like the prototype and with the new L.E.D. technology I'd love to play around with a more Tron-esque lighting scheme.

Overall, I really like what you've done with this concept. Great work.
