Just found out what it is. It has not been shown before.

It is the RL Aspec concept car. I wasn't expecting it to look this good.

in my opinion, other countries always gets the better looking cars.that silver one is hot


not feeling the leather in this one though, kinda weird looking to me looks like they got this idea from a baseball glove
and i dont like the way the panel built inside, looks like a remote control the way its shaped, but other than that I like these particular RLs

We've seen both. That Rl (the red) was debuted awhile back. Both look nice and enchance the RLs styling.

yeah Ive seen this on here b4 also. Its cool until you get to the interior. I dont like it. I do however like the Audi TT interior which also has the baseball glove like leather. It doesnt work to well with this interior. I think it has to do with the wood trim. Its not contasting, but blends in with the leatther color. Oh well, its just a concept, and highly doubt that it will be produced.

Yes, I love that baseball glove interior in the TT vert., I probably would have considered it if it's bigger & not an Audi

Wish they still used the Legend name here like on that silver example there....I never liked the newer TL / RL alphabet combo.
You can also see that that car is also marketed as a Honda, not just an Acura, in some places.
