That is far worse than anything Bangle ever created. In particular, the base model TL with 17" wheels and the chrome trim just looks so tacky.

are they trying to go out of business.

Same opinion here. The previous gen TL definitely look a lot better.
On the other hand, the TSX doesn't look too bad though.

this is just like what happened to the Ford Taurus a loooong time ago. There was a time it's styling was what most people liked. Then the design changed and transformed the Taurus into a cross between a boat and a spaceship. Fail....

the front grill reminds me of Optimus Prime's face, lol!
(maybe they were hoping to get into the new transformers movie)

The first gen TL looked alright ... Unless you're talking about the previous gen (i.e. third gen), then yeah, it does look fantastic. Originally Posted by sakimano

I completely agree, and I shall clarify that I was referring to the latest design discussed here. I do like the older Acuras a lot. Originally Posted by Hyde
