Acura "Style" magazine picture, what is it???

Sorry, this had to be moved from
https://acurazine.com/forums/showthread.php?t=170413


"Ok, so i got this Acura "Style" magazine in the mail yesterday and i noticed a picture with a lineup of Acura vehicles, one of which i could not identify. It is on the bottom of page 15, and the picture is kinda small. The first car looks to be the NSX or at least the concept NSX, the car in question is the one right behind it. It looks to be a two door, but it is hard to tell. It sorta looks like a new model CL, but again, not sure. If i can find this pic online i will be sure to post. Just wondering if anyone else noticed this."


i sent them an email, i will try to give a call later today.

I remember seeing pics of that car before. It is a *very* old concept design. I forget for what though.

Yeah, it's the old CL concept from 1995 or so... CLX. It's the concept for the 1st Gen CL...

The front grille is almost identical to the 97's.

Okay. But that's what it is. Ask the CL forum members.

That's the 2nd gen SEMA concept CL you posted.

The CLX concept we're talking about was for the 1st Gen CL like this one:

As for the magazine itself...

It needs MORE content! Its a good idea and Acura should run with it.

Bi-monthly with about 90 pages would be ideal. My last issue was around 65.

THe CL-X strikes again. Apparently the concept was about 12 years ahead of it's time. Everyone who has seen it recently seems to think it means a new CL is on the way.

I've had my Acura for over 5 years now, and I've only gotten maybe 3-4 copies at most

I did get the latest one...

I've had two Acuras over the past 5 years and I think I've only gotten 2 issues of Style.
I get other things like the Navi update notices and the recall notices, so I know they've got my address

That said, that CL concept apparently really was way ahead of its time

I got it in the mail, geez it was a boring magazine. Now, I know how Dick Collier looks like. He needs to wake up and bring out some more exciting cars. I was kind of shocked that he drives an RL to work. If I were him I'd drive an NSX instead or that Acura advanced sports car concept especially built for the CEO of the company.

especially the grainy picture. people think it's low quality due to it being snapped by a spycam when it was simply a crappy internet press photo that really showed how far the internet has progressed in the past decade.
