The blue on the new TLX looks just like long beach blue on the M2...

I really hope one day Acura actually puts a hot engine in the A spec or a type S. Throwing some body kits on a car doesn't do it anymore.

God i love my Supercharged Acura RSX Type S but these cars have become so boring over the years.

I can't agree more. I despised the old beak as it was one of the worst grilles in automobile history and while this is an improvement it's still not an attractive design. The massive acura emblem smack dab in the middle definitely doesn't help as something just looks off with the look.

Acura will probably still disappoint in some big way somehow.

If this is actually the rear quarter...they pretty much ruined an otherwise really nice looking vehicle in my opinion

I really like the new Supra. I like that they're making a 4-cylinder version and going downmarket. The world needs more cheaper sports cars.

But ffuuuuu.....The six-cylinder Supra is fast enough that it can comfortably ignore the 370Z. The 4-banger though? Its $10K more expensive and has 75 less horsepower than the Nissan. Any way you slice it, that's a steep price to pay for a chassis/interior from this decade.

I REALLY REALLY hope this is not the underpinnings for the next Accord. I have such high hopes for this car, and anything shared with the Accord would just be...ugh. I get it from a bean counter perspective but if they ever want to compete on a higher luxury level, they need to take more risks and diversify the platform.

100% agreed, I am still waiting for a sedan that I would really like to own from Acura. I know they can do it but they don't for some reason.
