I completely agree. That story doesn't even sound legit.

When it comes to the '04 TL, maybe they should. After all, that was how the first (blurry) "spy" shots of the TL were released.

sounds completely feasible...aren't the 04 TL's being built alongside the Accords here in Ohio? I mean they are due to launch in October right? Not like he said he spotted a new TL in the middle of Montana

One said he said Black one on the road, and another said his neighbor had a silver one..

I'm surprised I saw one, I never see anything before release.

In Dublin, Ohio at The Anderson's General Store at Sawmill and Bethel I parked next to a gold TL at about 7:45PM

When I pulled uip to it, my first though was, "wow, thats bigger than I remember the TSX being." walked behind it and noticed it was de-badged. no TSX, no TL, just Acura. Roomy inside, the center console between seats seems to look like its a foot.

I didn't really look to much, because I thought they would have been in the wild for along time if I had spotted one. The interior cabin has some paper slipped in a clear plastic baggie that had the VIN (I should have writen it down for you nay-sayers) and an OC#, and something about Raymond, Ohio, a town I've never heard of.

It was a sharp car, but I'm out of the market, so I really didn't study it too much.

I don't drive arround town with my digicam, so, that's right, no pics.

Northwest Columbus members, watch for them.

BTW, I don't even know the release date for this, when is it?

Oh, and the Ohio license plates were a type labled as "special", not "manufacturer", as I've seen on a BMW (we used to have BMW financial services in town).

I also live in Dublin, OH. Spotted a 04 TL on Route 33 yesterday. The car looks awesome in person.....a lot better than in the pictures. Had large ultra low profile tires, aggressive rear end styling, although I did not like the rectangle tail pipes....aka pontiac. Styling is more masculine than the current TL.

Makes me wanna go to the dealer for a test drive. Can't wait....

Raymond, OH is the home of Honda R&D
