Illuminiti.....OMG....Thanks for this pic. That is an amazing shot of the TLX if I can say so myself!! CAn you now find one with a bodykit please? (lol)

 

Yeah--right--that's the ticket.

 

I'm not sure of his name, but I've read on the interwebs that he also had his butt removed. Claimed it made him more green. But in reality it just made him full of $#i!

I've never owned a white car, but the color is growing on me. My wife recently ordered a new Mini in Pepper White with a black top and black interior (really not many options here) and it looks nice. The seats are black but have a grey cloth seating surface and are very very nice. I'd really like to see the Espresso interior. White/Espresso may be a nice combination.

 

When will Acura start offering panoramic roofs on their sedans. The white TLX would look good with one.

 

^i would expect to see exhaust tips before a panoramic roof

 

Found a super High res Interior shot off of my local dealer webpage. They seem to have some access to the Acura Webpage photos that we can't see yet.

I like the early 2000s cellphone icon for the Phone button.

 

I like what I see in that picture.

 

Thanks for all the pictures. Is it Acura who secretly leaking these photos on Acurazine to save some marketing $$$? And to remedy the delay? Lol

I would think so

 

Well as far behind as the TLX is .....

 

 

Nice pic. Granted the TLX looks better but from this angle it reminds me of a Kia Optima..

 

Only fitting.

 

I still like the TLX.

 

lol i wish i could man!

 

yikes...



via instagram

 

Maybe in 2035

 

That is not a flattering pic at all, dark colors do not fit the TLX

 

 

OK, randomRon82, I can now confirm that you are not an employee of Acura, since you just posted this ugly pic of the TLX! LOL

 

Lmao. Sorry. This is real life rawness. Haha

 

After owning 2 black cars in my life, I am not making the same mistake again! They look amazing when they are super clean and polished. The moment they get a bit of dirt on them they look like sh$t.

PS. At least on the black TLX they can paint the exhaust black so that it won't show so bad.

 

Sweet. I see exhausts.

 

The reality of that statement is what gets me so frustrated about this company. The appalling lack of creativity and risk taking that Acura practices leaves one with no argument as to why there is such an exodus from the brand.

 

I really hope they don't. Since they eschew options, all cars would either have or not have it. I'm sure it would piss off more people than it would please. If they made it standard on Advance (for example) but with a regular moonroof for Tech and lower, that would piss off a whole different group who would be forced to buy Advance if it was something they wanted.

 

4G was somewhat creative and certainly a risk taken and it was still widely panned by many.

 

Do I see 55 offset for those 17' wheels? I hope not.

 

Another high-res picture.

Probably the P-AWS kicked in, yo

 

Wow, I can reach through and touch the chrome beak in this HD pic. Lol... It's interesting how pronounced the side lines look in this picture as opposed to the other pics we've been seeing. I wonder if this is a case of touch up camera foolery or if they are really that sharp/deep.

 

Well from this angle it could me mistaken from any number of bland Asian sedans--without the Acura logo I would be hard pressed to identify what this was. They totally abandoned any distinctive identity at the rear and even, to some extent, from the side.

 

Imagine VTAKKK and PAWSSS kick in at the same time

 

IMO, all these pics just continue to reinforce that their new designs have to be seen with your own eyes to make a final call. It's the same thing with the RLX.

Certain angles look horrible, while others look sexy as hell. What is certain is that the new TLX design is not as polarizing as the 4G and much more like the 3G. Which IMO is a great thing.

I definitely agree that so far, "white" and "silver" appear to be the hit color for the TLX. I'm still not convinced that black won't work, we'll just have to wait to see it in person, AND with a nice tint on it. As it's been said before, little things can go a long way, and tint is definitely one of those. My RLX was a night and day difference once I put a nice dark tint on it. This pic of the RLX always grabs me, and is one of the very few pics that really captures how great this car looks in real-life. It was the one pic that sold me on the car without even having seen it in person...

 

Cars that you can identify and are distinct from each other from a block away regardless of angle (front/back/side):

Any Mercedes
Any BMW
Any Audi
Any Cadillac

Infinity/Maxima (to a somewhat lesser extent)

All of the others that come to mind (including new Acura) have some distinct identity pretty much from the front only. From the side or rear there is not much difference between new Acura, Lexus, Genesis, Optima--they all kind of blend into one.

Just my observation for what it's worth.

 

Shame on you Honda. I know these cars share the same chassis, but dam! I do not like the wheel choices for Acura. They are not upgraded enough.

 

Having owned my RLX now about a year, I would disagree wholeheartedly. My RLX is very noticeable and carries its own presence in any parking lot I'm in. On occassion I'll even get the "hey, that's a sharp looking car, what is that?" comment from someone who happens to be near me as I walk up or away from my car.

Acura's new design language is...new. The RLX nad ILX have only been out for about a year+ and will take time to be refined and matured and be noticed. The biggest problem is Acura needs to STICK with a design language. This constant "radical" change they keep doing every 3-4 years is contributing to their on going struggle to build brand recognition. It's just like a company logo, you can't get consumers to "know" your brand if you keep changing the logo...

 

I agree Keith. The rims are one of the things on my list of "dislikes" on the RLX. Acura really needs to step it up with more rik options, especially for their top end cars like the RLX. I love all the choices you get with BMW. They know how to do rims right.

 

BTW your RLX looks very nice. The one surprise is people have to ask what it is. I suppose once the look matures it will be no mistake that folks recognize its an Acura without having to see the badge. When I see a RLX on the road I have to double take because I'm not use to seeing them.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Good one!

 

The white TLX going the "wrong way" on the oval is the Facebook duck lips voodoo point of view shot that makes you think she is really hot. What we see above is the same chick in the flesh...bit of a drop off. Acura is flooding instagram with flattering shots, but still as boring as it ever was IMHO.
