TL SH-AWD vs. G37 - Edmunds.com

I'm sorry but that TL is hideous from all angles. Don't care how well it drives.

Four Doors, No Compromises




There comes a point in your life when change becomes essential. No longer is it acceptable to eat dinner directly from the cookware. Beanbag chairs are frowned upon. And, most of all, your friends are tired of being stuffed into the dank, musty backseat of your two-door coupe.
Sure, a coupe sometimes boasts an incrementally more structurally rigid body shell than a sedan, but it's a moot point when you consider how stiff modern cars are. You'd have to be Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton to discern the difference.
Sportiness transcends sheer door count when it comes to the desirability of a sedan these days, and two examples of this are the 2009 Acura TL SH-AWD and the 2009 Infiniti G37 Journey. Sedans only in form and more coupelike in dynamic function, these two cars take their sporting credentials seriously.

i agree... the new TL is hideous... they should have kept with the same body and went with a quad cam 3.5 liter v6 AWD with about 325-345 hp...

Yeah, it's pretty ugly. Sometimes Honda just takes a good thing and just randomly changes direction. This car seems to have very little character, unless you think imitating a Cadillac is character.
