Front is weak and cheap looking. The rest of the car might still look okay though.

That grille is hideous. It's the shield emblem for the League of Ricers.

Gross - it looks like a stretched (upwards) Accord Coupe.

i agree about the remark towards it being cheap looking. there isn't enough body sculpting or anything to suggest that it's an upmarket SUV (or SAV).

Just like the new TL. A plastic seagull.

So many of the new Acura angles are confusing to me.

Ummm they have just ripped off the Genesis coupe and made it a big wagon
The front has the same lines and shapes.

The side has the same lines, it even has a similar weird window line.


ZDX = Genesis AWD edition, except the Genesis looks sweet.

interested in this thing, it should be cheaper than the RL and the grill looks more palatable when seen in person.

It would look better with a longer wheelbase and lowered.
