Who the hell is approving these designs for Acura?!?!

WOW what have they done?!?! That looks just like a rebadged Accord but the Accord is FAR better looking. I have nearly lost all faith in Acura's design team, what a shame!

Wow, Hyundai wasn't lying about Acura at least in their superbowl commercial.

Pretty poor MMC, that's for sure. I still like the interior a lot but man, that exterior looks dated already. Reminds me of the Acura CL in the front and there's a lot of TL in the side profile as well.

Horrible.

They need to bring the fully redesigned RL with a V10 and get this thing off the lot.
