I don't like it, and I like the current TSX a lot, because it's a very clean design. This just looks too overdone, yet still kind of bland. Front end reminds me of last gen Camry Solara.
 
*Official* detail has been released about 2009 Acura TSX (not Accord Euro, so I assume more reliable source for US buyer). You will get bunch of results by search, but THIS is one of them. (They basically refers same info anyway)

Few highlights are:

* Only one engine selection just like previous gen (2.4 I4 for 201HP & 172lb/ft)
* No SH-AWD planned for now
* No Turbocharged RDX powerplant planned for now, either
* A bit bigger than previous gen
* Dual-mode suspension dampers
* Technology package became similar to that of other Acura vehicles (Realtime traffic added, AcuraLink added)

I have been a really big fan of TSX. And I like the new look of TSX as well. I was thinking about trading my 06 325i with new TSX once available, but it's quite disappointing it has pretty much same powerplant as before.

Same powerplant = 🙁. The problem with the Honda 2.4 I4 is it's based on such an old design. It's gets the same or worse gas mileage than a lot of new V6 engines out there and it takes premium to boot. Why else would the TL with that 3.5L V6 get better mpg?
 
I have an 06 TSX, and was thinking about waiting for this refresh due to a possible motor upgrade... Good thing I bought when I did! I would have been sorely disappointed!
