Default Acura TL A-SPEC Concept To Debut at Los Angeles Auto Show

[align=http://4hs.org/tn/2003/12/11/HON2003121168716_tn.jpg]left[/align][align=http://4hs.org/tn/2003/12/12/HON2003121236821_tn.jpg]left[/align] Detroit, MI. 12/11/2003 -- The Acura TL A- SPEC Concept vehicle will make its debut at the Greater Los Angeles Auto Show. This extensively modified TL is an exercise built to explore the next level of performance accessory possibilities for Acura's best-selling sedan.

Based on the all-new 2004 TL, the TL A- SPEC Concept takes the performance theme to the extreme, with a combination of aggressive styling, powertrain enhancements and racing-inspired interior modifications. Styling highlights include a wider track, 21-inch alloy wheels, wide fender flares, redesigned front and rear fascias and a full-length glass roof.

The 2004 TL debuted in October and has shattered sales records in each of its first two months on sale. Dramatically redesigned with sporty new exterior styling, a 270-horsepower engine, sport-tuned suspension and an assortment of the latest technology, the TL is a true driving enthusiast's car.

Additional details on the TL A-SPEC Concept will be announced on Monday, December 29 at the Greater Los Angeles Auto Show.

Those fender flares will do a lot to enchance the stance and persona of the car IMO.

Yes it's beautiful.......but Acura.....what's the point if you're not going to deliver?! Stop tempting us and release these monsters to production! You'll have your M3, M5 competitors, and your halo image.

It's concept, which usually means they add a bit more to the design than what will actually be produced. Such as the 21 inch rims. I would say maybe 18 at the most for production. Otherwise the cost for tire replacement alone would be incredible.

The thing is though....chances are that none of this will be produced...at least that's the way it's been in the past with these extreme concepts.
