i dont think it's that bad. the SH-AWD is a welcome, as tests from car magazines would attest to. The rear is a little off, but with a little trunk spoiler and some rear ground effects treatment from the options list, it's not so bad. The wheels just need to be a bit bigger- 19's look great. About the rear, this picture isn't very bad looking to me.

^^ Still horrid and ugly. A car should not NEED modifications to look better, they are to accent the car. Not to mention Acura corporate is up in arms that dealers continue to go against their wishes by painted grills and selling them. It defeats the entire purpose of them going through the trouble debuting the can opener beak only for dealers to sell painted beaks and cheap grills.
Here is what you get

I guess they will never be able to truly separate themselves from the ricer mentality that plagues the brand and that is why they are a complete joke.

why all the hate? the SH-AWD car would be a choice for me. I like it with the optional factory body kit and the 19 inch wheels, change the beak with the website i've posted pictures from and it looks fine. Acura isn't what it used to be and neither is the TL, but at least it's offering AWD

I am also with you on this one. I don't really understand. From all the post in this forumn Acura is not even close competitor to Lexus and base on some even Kia/Ford/Hunydai are even better than Acura. Yet Acura's name got drag in the mud in many post and even on post that is not even related to Acura and yet it's name is still mention in it. I get it .. because it produce ugly car to many members here but how many time do we have to mention that the TL is ugly is enough ..

If you actually read this thread instead of jumping to fanboy conclusions, you would see it was initially about the fake dealer trim level. What happened was TF109B then tried to come to the rescue and post pics of modified Tls that are still ugly. This thread wasn't about the looks, it was about the fake Type-S package. Then it became about "looks".
Then if you actually decided to look in car chat and not just Honda threads you would see we talk about every brand in here. So don't decide to get butthurt and cry and make accusations when I personally started 20 or so threads about different cars and brands. I don't see you posting in the;
550GT thread
the Lexus Carbon Fiber thread
the next M5 thread
the CL 550 review thread
GTR V-spec thread
Ferrari 599XX thread
and the thousands of other threads in car chat
Anyone with a fully functioning brain can see that. Rather you come to post your disdain in another Honda/Acura thread completely ignoring the thousands of other threads in here.
It is beyond pathetic in CarChat we can have a reasonable discussion about any car brand BUT Honda/Acura as the mental midgets come in, don't read, make attacks and false claims.
Oh and here are just a couple of threads with CarChat adoring Acura and being complimentary to it. Funny you forgot those as you POSTED in them.
