Nooo... too Civic/Accord-ish, like some people have said.
I like the 2005 tsx a lot better.
Retiring this account. ._.; Japanese lettering isn't all that appealing to me anymore.

The grill is so ugly. I like the previous TSX.

lol the face is "meaner" in a sense, but the full chrome "V" shape image overdoes it :X the backlights are okay, just a little cutdown near the left and right side?

Honda/Acura is trying to get "edgier" on their styling as a response to the decades of criticism for bland styling. Personally I think what they refer to as bland, I think of as subtle and prefer it that way but at least Honda is trying to get out of their comfort zone. It is evident from their funky styling of the Accord sedan and coupes, TSXs, the bold Civic designs, and the first turbo on the RDX.

I can respect that. It looks like the grille will be an Acura lineup theme as you can see it on the MDX already, but doesn't the Saturns already have that silver/chrome type grille?

The worst part is, word is that Acura is going to stick with this "futuristic" looking grille despite negative reaction from nearly everyone. I personally think it works on the MDX but not on the TSX and definitely a no-no on the RL. Now they are going to use it on the TL and ruin it.

Even people on the acura forums are disgusted with acura right now. There are a lot of people moving to bmw or audi
