The retards couldn't even get the paint to match.

What the hell is that thing? They ruined a good looking car. Oh, and they stole the tailpipe design from the '98-'02 Seville STS. At least the Seville is a good looking car.

What in the hell???? It's like they took design ideas from everyone and melded them into that! :vomit:

My neighbor bought a new Accord...:ack:

WTF..
LMAO look at the engine compartment.! ahaha way to keep the heat traped in.

The retards couldn't even get the paint to match.


Where doesn't the paint match?

Weaksauce..... That thing is hideous!

That design is just too busy; as others have noted, took a lot of styling queues from good looking cars, used them all in one design........................and yuck.

Paint does match between the front door & front fender.

Give new meaning to the word UGLY

Looks like a melting car. Front looks like a laughing hyena. Back looks like
a peacock pooping - if you've ever seen such. (I have).

If this was a new Pontiac Grand Prix the Edmunds crew would be panning it from the heavens to he**.
But, NOooo, it's a honDUH so it can do no wrong and is always beautiful !:yawn:

I really don't find it to be that bad looking. I don't like the front fascia - but the rest, I kinda like. I know I'm an oddball, though.. I seem to find something about every car that makes me like it. I even like the Cimmaron, so go figure.

Well, it looks like Honda has aped BMW in ruining the looks of every car they make. The TL is even more fugly than the Accord.

Its a butterface for me.

Honda has been copying BMW for some time ......... monkey see monkey do .........right into the design toilet!!!

I've seen better looking Citroens.

Paint does match between the front door & front fender.

I am sure it matches fine, it is only the angle and light in the picture. My Corvette looks the same as that Honda from different angles, as soon as you move or get closer to it the panels and doors are the same color.

Not all current Japanese designs are sucky.

Infiniti G37 Coupe and Sedan are gorgeous.

Yes, the Infinti Q45 was among the best. Especially in it's final year, 2006.
(and that there is my long list of Japanese cars that I loved.)

Does anyone notice the rims copied from GM?

The first thing that comes to mind when I see that TL is the Aura.

They have totally ruined the look of the new TL and TSX. I have always thought the previous models were some of the best looking sedans on the market. Now they just look like overgrown, overdone versions of their former self with a michael jackson esque nose job.

Also, the new accord is a very ugly design as well.

I love the look of the new MDX. I like the TSX and like the TL now as well. I can see why others don't but I really dig the noses of the new Acuras.

I liked all the last gen Acuras but they got VERY long in the tooth to me. Sorry I have to rain on your Hate Parade but I like 'em.

And I like Honda as well. Much better made cars than Toyota...

I still do like Honda a lot more than I like Toyota, funny considering Lexus owns Acura in my book. I think I like Nissan the most though now. They never got into those odd designs like Honda did and they aren't as environmentally arrogant as Toyota is.

I can't wait to see the new NSX. I heard something today about a new Supra as well... Anyone know anything about that?

I can't wait to see the new NSX. I heard something today about a new Supra as well... Anyone know anything about that?The Maxima is the only Nissan design I like and that took awhile. Their front ends, as a whole over the past few years, are atrocious and they have simple, blocky styling that just does not work for me.

After years of simple, clean design Honda was getting torched. So they start turning out interesting designs and they get torched again. I just really like the razor foil front ends...

I've always respected Honda engineering. The Hondas I've owned and others I've driven were always a pleasure to drive and well thought out. I just can't get past the looks of the current crop. Haven't cared much for Nissan styling of late either, other than the Inifiniti G35 (or is it 37?). Toyotas are just big snore-fests, except for the Prius, which looks to me like a pregnant roller skate (plus so many Prius owners are so friggin' smug).

If I were shopping Japanese right now, I'd be looking at Mazda. Their designs are sharp and sleek without getting too weird.

I hope it's a you got to see it in person type of thing because I really liked that car.

I don't like Honda. They are overrated as hell and the current designs are really ugly and cheap looking. Toyota is no better in either department, but I do like the new Camry and the Corolla isn't a bad looking vehicle. My '00 Camry was a masterpiece of simplicity and refinement. Boring? Yes. Slow? Yes. Reliable? Started up every time.

Hondas are well designed, well put together and ergonomically perfect.

This is a shame to all automobiles. Anyone who spends money on this is a very wealthy crack head.

Mazdas are seriously underrated cars.

VTEC FTMFW!!!!!!!!!!

Are the hood pins a bit to much?
