New images of a lightly disguised '09 Acura TL are now up on the Net. Unlike previous images, these really give a clear indication of what the car looks like.

Yikes, this car is hideous front and back. Who is making the design decisions at Honda? Its getting out of control.

The '09 TL will slice and dice ANY vegetables that get in its way!!!!

It seems like Acura is just trying to do anything it can to somehow distinguish itself in the marketplace, after being relatively bland and invisible for so long - even if that means slapping a ridiculous grille on its cars. I should think that they could do better.

That is so disappointing, especially following one of the market's best-designed cars. The '04-'08 TL was a real looker, even after 5 years on the market it still looked more modern than some of its competitors.

That thing inspires paraphrasing Bill Cosby's line: "And the [car] starts to get Ugleeeee. Fenhhhhh. So Ugleeeeeeee. Urahhhhhhhhhhhh....."
Then again, who did Acura test market this with?

The Honda Accord is officially the best looking car Honda motor co makes. At least that car copied BMW a little.

Looks like a Camry mixed with an Avalon! You can put the Toyota logo and nobody will noticed.

Blecht! Does anyone else think they mixed the ass end of the Accord with a Saturn Aura? Especially that piece of trim at the lower portion of the trunk. Half of Honda's design team needs to be replaced. All except for those responsible for the FCX Clarity, CRZ, new Fit, and the latest concept that came out at the British Auto Show.

I saw the new TSX in person and the shield grille looks worse than in photos. I hope I never have to see one of these on the road.

The back end reeks of Aura, I agree.

I actually laughed out loud when I saw these pictures. This car is genuinely ridiculous looking.

I actually like the styling except for that disgusting grille. Fix it Acura!

Looks like they tested it with the 14-year-old Japanimation crowd.
