I like it.
They just need to take out the hideous silver stripe up front and some good looking headlights.

meh and at what price point will it come in at, i doubt it can compete with the GT-R, so the price better be similar or less LOL

Honda needs to completely clear house on their entire styling department. No quarter. They cannot make a car that is remotely acceptable anymore. It's terrible.

I don't know, it's not so bad. But it absolutely has to be faster than a Nissan GT-R or they are wasting their time though. And with the power they are listing, it needs to be really light to accomplish that. 410hp combined. 310hp direct injection V-6 drives the rear wheels plus ~100hp electric motors driving the front wheels. It will have to weigh in well under 3000 pounds to match the GT-R if it gives up that much power to it. Especially when you consider how underrated the GT-R engines are.

That looks WAY better. What is the pricing set to be?

I don't really get all the hate in this thread. I think it looks pretty good.

Did you see the front end of that thing? The silver beak look is just hideous to most people.

I think the silver beak looks OK on the one I posted. The one at the start of the thread is not as good. And I have to agree that it's hideous on the 2009 - 2011 TL.

For full disclosure though, I still drive a 2006 TL.
