A spec available in modern steel metalic ?
Was just on acura website and some dealer sites and saw the A spec in Modern Steel Metalic with black or red interior. I thought it was only in black/white/blue/red for exterior colors. Have not seen any pics of the metalic steel posted on the forums. Did I miss something or is this a new offer? I had a deposit down on a blue but love the black but know its a lot of work to keep clean. Seems the steel would be a nice option. Anyone have one out there or is this a mistake on the acura website? Would love it in silver but the steel seems to be a nice option to black.

I went to see it in person so I'll put up some pics. I would suggest you do the same. I was hoping it was a little darker, but the car does look good. If you look for pictures you will see that the shade of gray looks very different depending on camera, angle and sunlight.

That color was always available since launch. It is the same or similar color I have on my current TL so it was my primary choice for the TLX ASpec whenever I pulled the trigger.

Thanks, don't know how I missed it. Seen all the pics on here and must have missed it. Guess not popular. I left a deposit on the blue but think it may be a little to flashy for me. They had a black one in the showroom and that was crazy nice but everyone says its a mother to keep clean. I have white now and its fairly easy to keep clean but I prefer something darker. Something for me to think about now. I still have time as things are on hold for other reasons but the dealer did say they blue is a love or hate thing for buyers.
Like I said, the car does look awesome depending on the camera and light.
The pictures below are the same color as the previous pictures I posted. You can be the judge...oh and certainly go see it yourself:

Very nice, gives the car a lot of presence. So far of all the shots I have seen its the color I would buy.

I've seen this color in person and it looks pretty good. My dealer sat on it for over 6 weeks as it wasn't selling. The only issue I don't like about it is the shark grey rims are too close to the color of the car itself. I wish it has more contrast. Overall it's a good color though.

I think it looks great!
My last Accord was MSM (gray) and I thought it did a decent job of hiding dirt and imperfections - yet it could look great after a nice polish and seal. Maybe not as eye-catching as a freshly polished black car but about 100 times easier to care for.

Agreed. So much easier than black. And a nice color

What a great colour on the A-Spec!
It's just super annoying that this colour is not available for the A-Spec in Canada...!!! I can imagine how sharp it would look with the red interior.... sigh!
