Probably the exhaust pipe from the catalyc converter. :happysad:

I like the rear...but the front still seems a lil too conservative for my tastes...I know its masked, but you still get a genaral idea.

i think they tried to mask the crease going from the front sidemarker to the rear sidemarker in the concept. so it looks pretty weird in the spy shot

It looks great, Honda is finally getting Acura a 'look' which will help identify it.

Looks a lot the same. I wonder if they can get spy pics of the drivetrain....
Also, i think if they kill off the CL, a 6-speed manual in the TL-S is almost a given.

Even the concept looks like a bigger TSX. I hope they differentiate the front look a little, a little bit more unique in its styling.

That's another thing I was thinking it could be. At least it's not as bad as the exhaust on Camry's.

I agree, the current TL even has this. Also, I don't think the wheels are 18's, 17's for sure. I'd say the S would have 18's. I've been known to be wrong though.....

And much to my dissapointment, I don't see that strong character line running from front to back, which also incorporates the turn signals. That was one of my favorite parts about the concept. Also, does anyone see turn signals in the mirrors? I don't.

Of course these photos aren't the best - but I'm not as hopped up as I was when I first saw the concept.
