super sexy car!

 

dang nice!!

 

nice. I think the new design is growing on me. I like it in Arthercite or whatever that dark gray color is.

 

it has like a tsx front end, mustang rear end

 

mustang rear end huh? didn't you sell your acura?

 

looks nice, but they do need to do something with the back end. If they would have cleared out half the rear tail-light (kind of like the CL or the Audi A4) it would look a lot better. Too much red

 

holy sh!t those gauges look beautiful. 270 hp 6 speed and brembos

 

But no White with Ebony......

ACURA!

 

Brembo is std on 6 spd, cool.

 

Finally.....the sunroof opens all the way! It sure is alot of car, but I hope it doesn't come with an RL price.

 

:wackit:

 

3d solar sensing, heh

 

If I get one, I will wait a year or two. Acura's latest build quality issues don't inspire reliability, no more 1st year acura's for me.
My old integra was built much better than my cls, and it held its value. The features look nice on paper, we will see how the car holds up with real use. Acura is still targeting the over 40 crowd with this car. Maybe that's why they had tranny problems, they didn't expect anyone to actually use the 260hp
I agree with others here, that they need to keep the price in line with the current TLS.

 

That interior is awesome. Great work. The exterior is damn near ugly to me. I will have to see it in person.

Seeing the car is much shorter, I am sure they will export to Europe. Wow, Brembos on damn near every car now. Good to see car makers upgrading brakes with the additional power.

I'll have to drive it as well. Though the starting price of 33k is plain ol ON CRACK. I hope Acura understands hella people bought the TL cause it was loaded at 30k. A unloaded 33k TL=I dunno?

 

DTS in car audio system? That shit rocks!!
I am dieing to hear this one, I guess that's standard, and I love the gauge cluster.

I guess it's going to have both VSA, and TCS (?)

Unfortunately still looks like the same old transmission, they seem to just be adding more crap and not necessarily fixing any problems (seems like they feel that throwing more crap on the car with some cool Gee Whiz gizmo's will make the car sell better?? unfortunately this theory will only work IF the person buying the car has not owned a later generation ACURA!! (ie. 01+ CL or TL)

 

Well the major problems with the previous gens were:
1. TRANNIES
2. Brakes, both weakness and warping
3. Squeaks
4. Tires

1. Get a six speed, but the auto tranny isn't the old one anyway, its the MDX tranny. I'd still get a six speed.
2. Brembos
3. New seals on the sunroof "engineered for quietness'
4. Yokohama AVS ES100

 

OMG I'm leaving my wife and humping a TL from now on!...lol....That is the most beautiful car!

 

I have 2 say that is 1 nice interior. Everything about it looks better than ours

 

1- Acoustic windshield :pinpgrin:

2- DVD audio will make Mark levinson sound like ASS

3- 3D solar adjustment of HVAC

YOU NEED TO REGISTER AND WATCH THE VIDEOS OF THE ENGINEERS TALKING ABOUT DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF THE CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yeah! The engineer talking about the blue light bathing the center console from the ceiling was a trip. Can't wait to see what that's all about.

 

nycceeeeeeeeeee

 

I want! I want!

 

Yo...on edmunds.com...it says that w/ the DVD Navi set-up...you can watch DVD movies w/ the car in park...man would that be sweet. Also dual climate control and cooled seats...hope this ain't bullshit...

 

I hope it isn't more than 31 K with NAV...

I don't like the embossed acura name in the front under the grille, it reminds me of the ass of mustanges

handbrake is cool. Sure is a lot funner in the rain

I don't like the license plate on the trunk lid

gauges look completely badass

I don't like how it is the size of the tsx

navi looks top notch

i'm sure dealers will install brembos on people wanting automatics.

 

That interior is VERY nice and miles above the last TL/CL, but the exterior....what the fuck are they thinking?

 

Very nice.. brembos.. holy shit!!

 

Not gonna happen, starting price w/o nav is 33.5k. Add nave, its 35.5, and then 6mt, its like 36, then A-Spec, prolly 39+. Not so much of a bargain anymore

 

It looks like your gonna get what you pay for. I'd like to see what the next RL is gonna have and what it will cost. With all this stuff on the lower TL, the RL is gonna be able to go with the big boys. V6 or not.

Exterior looks good to me.

 

Love the interior. Still not feeling the outside though.
Makes me wonder what the next CL will look like.

 

Looking good.

Sounds like Acura management folks look at these sites and have upgrading at least some of what we all complain about.

Can't wait to see what the next Coupe or Roadster is all about!

 

MDX get the tire pressure monitor but not the new TL... I don't understand!

 

I'll have to see it in person to give a really honest assessment.

 

Completely!!!! The chasis is wider and shorter. I'm excited about the tires etc., A-Spec package is refresing as well. What they need to do now is offer AWD and i'm sold......

 

need awd.

 

why did they have to put that ugly side door panel groove ditch thing

 

everything is sooo perfect, then you realize its fwd..

 

they will stop on a dime, but will probably have brake squeak, the brembo's on mercedes squeak alot, so do the ones on my bike, i don't mind, its an ok trade off for the performance

 

if its anything like mercedes, they could keep it!!!!!

 

The rear end is awesome, but I think the rest of the design is too close to the TSX.
