This is a concept that the TLX Type-S will be based on. The production car will be a watered down version.

Let's see if they can actually execute on this. Acura has been lost for many years now. My wife has owned three of them, all excellent cars, but their styling has been all over the place in recent years and they seem to have given up on sports cars (not counting the NSX, which isn't for normal people). I honestly wonder how Acura is being managed given their lack of direction.

My wife has a '16 TLX and that it's nice... like an updated Accord nice. This concept is very nice and I hope they don't deviate too far from this on the production model.

Why is it so hard to bring concepts alive...
It can't be regulations alone.

The car from the 1st post could easily be road legal except the mirrors.

So what's wrong with those carmakers?

Are they just teasing and advertising?

Promoting a shitbox on wheels with a concept like this is just scam!

From those Patent images, doesn't look like anything spectacular. I'm a big Acura fanboy and was seriously considering grabbing the Type-S but couldn't wait that long... Especially after seeing the Supra. That new Acura blue is extremely sensual though
