The difference here is that these sketches are from Honda, who alwys put out very accurate sketches.

OMG!!!!! :rockon: If this new RL is going to have a sufficient power plant, look out BMW. The way this SH-AWD thing looks, it has the potential to supplant a 5-series in handling....... I said potential. I didn't say it would. But I am liking it very much. Seems like Honda is taking Acura into more performance oriented avenues.
