I must agree with the new RL. I just saw it after my last post and I'm very dissapointed. This is Acura's biggest mistake in a while. To take a struggling model and make it less appealing is pretty sad.

I liked the previous one, though I know many did not and I like the profile of this one as well, though I really don't like those headlight... Are they even functional? Looks like you'd see more out of the side than the fronts... haha

It is hideous, but that has already been said, I hope Infinity is using that as a test mule, because it is A$$ ugly!

Interior is beautiful.

Can't get used to the headlights though. Kinda overdone.

3.5L + VVEL + 7 Speed (should) = Good fuel economy

+ 1.

The rear and sides look ok, but the front end is just strange I want to check it out in person though. The specs are pretty impressive.

Do not want.
The previous looks much better there are way too many weird bulges and creases all over this design. And honestly the fender vents on almost all cars need to go.
