Temple of VTEC Rumors and News - Neal's Fantasy Factory Tantalizes with the Acura TLX "2020 Vision" Concept

Acura if you build this you can take my money now but you hate us so.....

 

I remember a while back T.O.V. did one for the ILX also. It might be more wishful thinking than a direction Acura is moving towards. I would really consider either one if they were a 4-door hatch version available!

ILX:

 

... if only

 

baby nsx!

 

Nope, just nope. The rear end looks like the new Civic.

 

I like this profile, call it the CLX not the TLX and add it as a higher end model or maybe a RLX replacement! Load it with luxury tech and SH-AWD, get rid of FWD.

 

omg... that's beautiful. i'm actually feeling a bit depressed knowing acura isn't going to give us this. so sad indeed.

Neal McDaniel killed it. That ILX concept is gorgeous too. I happen to love the new civic profile. It's a beautiful car for ~$20K and the tech you get is only further compelling. But i digress.

The TLX 2020 is a litttleeeee bit bulky, but i can live with it. All the NSX influences really came together beautifully. actually like the new grill on the picture. The headlights and tailights are perfect.

Well done mr. mcdaniel.

Give it the Sport Hybrid SH-AWD system from the MDX, RLX, NSX with 27/28 mpg city, 325+ HP, and i'm sold.

 

I'm not diggin' the 2020 concept ... ridiculously slammed and too high a beltline.

The ILX concept ain't bad, though, and those wheels are killer.

 

4 door coupe / gran coupe style is fine, but traditional sedan look models are also requierd.

 

I find Neal's attempt at the 2020 TLX is great except the wheels, OMG, they are worse than what Acura actually puts out. Those on the ILX rendering are hot though!

 

I don't believe Acura a bit. Example, TLX prototype vs. production.

Unless it's on the dealer lot for sale, I don't believe anything Acura puts out.

 

 

 

 

^was that patented by Honda/Acura? Any further information?

 

Source needed

 

 

I at first thought this was a Vision 2020 thread (Gov't type project for increased aircraft readiness for the Navy). Glad I was wrong!

 

Honda EV. Check out the instrument panel about 15:00 minutes in.

 

I agree...I never understood what was so awesome and so great in the TLX prototype compared to the actual production TLX.....they are the same car.

 

I would definitely get back into the Acura family in a heartbeat if they really build something like that (and the the proper amount of power)...but they will not I'm afraid...

 

Interesting. Looks like the Precision Cockpit

 

I like the concept.

 

 

It's almost July and we pretty much have nothing on this new Gen. Just a few crappy spy pics. I think they might be way behind schedule....

 

While they may be behind schedule, I'd rather Acura/Honda get this thing right from the start rather than face more growing pains from the first launch of the TLX back in 2014-2015. Whether they do or not remains to be seen, but we can all hope for a great product when it does see the light of day.
