That is not how the car will look once its produced. They are trying to hide most of it.

What do you guys mean it's really ugly?? Half the cars like covered to prevent people from seeing how it looks! Personally I think the body shape looks really really nice. Nice contours.

If you look at the front, the hood line doesn't go straight. Obviously there's a fake front end that's covering the real front. Same with the rear.

It's not photochopped, or at least I don't percieve it to be. Instead of using ducktape and some fabrics they used something solid. The overall shape looks similar to the US Accord, very similar. V8, I doubt. AWD V6 w/ IMA, possibly.

You know what? After looking at some pictures, I'm starting to think that it is an Accord...

You know a lot of people say the same thing, that it looks like an Accord. The place where I saw it said that it was an RL.

No I don't think its a chop. and the lines are suppose to not line up. They are trying to hide how the real car will look.

BTW love your sign. What the heck is she putting into her mouth?

it looks like one of those alfa romero, opel, vauxhall type cars. the grill, taillights, headlights, and overall body shape do not look acura-esque to me.

Geez.

Alfa Romeo?? The front is fake. Lemme repeat that again, the front is fake to prevent people to see how it actually looks.

Either people don't read the responses or they just don't get it.

All of you wannabe photoshop experts, it's not photochopped. If you think that's a photochop you don't know much about photochops.

That looks more like a realistic version. But to everybody who keeps claiming that the first one was a chop, it's not!... so stop claiming it to be one. The point of those test versions is not to see how they look, it's to see how they perform. And we all know that Acura won't make anything that ugly.

^^ With AWD, I'd want THAT over the TL. Did you guys hear about it's SH-AWD? SH, kinda like, the Prelude, except all wheel drive, with control to which rear wheel the power goes to individually...
