Not even 1MB?! Sheesh, and I was worried because I linked the smaller pic into 4 different posts on various Acura boards plus here. Oh well 🙂

Well, an Acura TL isn't exactly a "heart pumper"

It's an Acura for goodness sakes! 😛

Now if it had been the '05 BMW 3-Series or '04 Mustang it would have racked up a few MB's

Well, when you post it on Acura boards, (especially Acura-tl.com ?) you'd expect that it'd pull more than 1MB. The picture is 300k, and it automatically displays when you click on the message. The message on each Acura board I posted it on had over 100 views. 300k * 100 views per acura board = 30 Megs * 4 Acura boards = 120 Megs. Maybe Rossman meant that it didn't use more than 1 Gigabyte.

In fact I just checked and on Acura-tl.com the post has 569 views. On acuraworld.com 348 views, and 795 views on acura-cl.com ... That adds up to ~513600kbyes. About 500 Megs of viewing ... Now assuming that some people viewed the page more than once and that cache is taking into effect ... That number is probably larger than it needs to be. ~200-300 megs is a more likely assumption. I once again state that Rossman probably meant 1GB and not 1MB.

You may not be a huge Acura fan, but I'm sure there are more than 3 people on the Internet that would be interested in what the new TL looks like.

Maybe its not a Nissan or Infinity, or the new Mustang. But its still a bread and butter car for Acura, its their best selling car (the MDX SUV outsells it in total monthly sales though) even though the design of the 2003 TL is 5 years old. In fact in 2002, the TL sold 60,764 cars .. 69,484 in 2001, higher than the MDX in both cases. And with rumors of the car having at least 280hp under the hood, with some people claiming the car will have AWD, 300hp, and 260ft/lbs under the hood ... I think there's some serious interest in the car.
 
Looks slick, IMO.
I don't like thew way the sill cuts up so high to the rear. Makes it so hard to see out the rear and rear quarters of the car.
So many automakers do this now, especially Acura, and it is, in fact, my dad's chief complaint about his RSX.
Really brings out the appeal of Volkswagen design 😀😉
 
I thought I was wrong since I didn't have my coffee yet.

So I got a latte and double checked, only used 0.627510MB so far.

Maybe it's because it's a small file size, hehe and I allotted 20GB for the pic 😉

Thats really strange, that means its only been looked at 2 times! U sure you aren't looking at the copy I accidently uploaded into the wrong place? 🙂 ... The pic is 322Kbytes, so it doesn't sound right, but oh well, no big deal!

Anyone else going to the NY Autoshow to checkout this car and others?
 
I like it ... but the reporter in that video didn't know much about cars ... I like the fact that it's wiperless ...
