2009 Acura TL is re-released one last time

August 12th, 2008 · 1 Comment

You’ve already seen it before, but Acura wants you to know the new TL’s not going away any time soon. I can make fun of the buck-tooth front end all over again, but it’s just getting too old. Instead, Iets use the official release to spend some time getting to know the rest of the [...]

Sneak peak of 2010 Acura NSX

July 29th, 2008 · 2 Comments

If you took the zebra-pattern camouflage off the Acura NSX we saw around the Nurburgring, this is probably what you’d see. Using insider hints and super speculation skills, Japanese Holiday Auto Magazine has created this render two years ahead of the car’s official unveiling. This render looks eerily similar to what we’ve seen before here [...]

Acura is still trying to hide the TL, a week after showing it naked

July 21st, 2008 · 2 Comments

The Acura TL is an attention whore. It hasn’t even made it to the big leagues yet (meaning it has yet to be released) and, like Kim Kardasian, it manages to show its ugly face (and big butt) everywhere (like here and here). We’ve even seen it naked. But in an odd twist, Acura [...]

Update 07/22/2008: First real-life detailed photographs

While I’m not in love with the new Acura TL, I’m definately happy they did better than the disaster that is the Acura RL. The guys over at Car Lounge might not like what they call the “cheese grater” nose, but it looks alright. A bit busy looking yeah, but [...]

A speculative render of Acura/Honda NSX

June 28th, 2008 · 1 Comment

The next NSX has confused all of us, especially after spy photographers revealed shots of the car on the Nurburgring. Some people have said the car in question, which looked nothing like the original NSX, was a Honda mule based off the S2000. Others people though are much more confident what we saw was in [...]

Acura TL is unleashed, continues radical design philosophy

June 23rd, 2008 · 3 Comments

Recently I’ve been accused of being overly critical of Acura’s design philosophy, but I think I’ve figured out why I’m so frustrated with this brand. The problem with Acura is that it insists on producing revolutionary design change instead of more traditional design evolution. One reason for the drastic changes might be a common perception [...]

Look inside 2010 Acura NSX reveals paddle shifters, that’s it

June 20th, 2008 · 1 Comment

If the rumors of a 2010 Acura NSX or the 7:37 lap-time around the Nurburgring didn’t impress you, here’s a shot of what’s rumored to be the next generation NSX’s interior. There isn’t much to see yet, but what’s clear is a pair of paddle shifters and a couple of very attractive guages.

The new “NSX” rumors were true after all + the Nurburgring lap time

June 17th, 2008 · 4 Comments

It might not look like a Honda (Acura) NSX, but early unconfirmed reports suggest the chattery gossipers might have been spot on about a NSX-esque Honda by 2010. The spy shots from the Nurburgring race track dont show much, but there seems to be a move away from the typically sleek and low riding NSX [...]
