“Patent Filing” really doesn’t scream excitement or surprise usually, except when it reveals what a certain vehicle could look like. Car & Driver uncovered some images of is purported to be the new Acura RLX. And, we’re kind of hoping this isn’t the production model.

The images show the RLX getting a new front end that is very reminiscent of the current TL and ILX. The side and back is a choose-your-own design book, ranging from a a Lexus GS to a Chevrolet Cruze.

We’ll find out if the images turn out to be the production model sometime later this year.

Better yet, buy a LaCrosse or an CTS XTS instead.

How to go pear-shaped thanks to complacency, Acura edition.

I would say that the Integra was legendary, but I really do not think the rest of the lineup lived up to what it was supposed to be. While I like the pre-beak styling, there was always somthing I liked more in the segments it is in.

I liked the Integra, but also the Legend coupes and sedans were nice, for Hondas. Also, I did like the RSX. And the NSX was one of the few Japanese classics, imo.
