I know we have seen spy shots of the Accord sedan, coupe and Acura RLX all in Death Valley testing, but in one of the pictures it looks like they are actually testing all three together. This can mean one of two things Accord will raise the bar on refinement in this class or Acura is now completely giving up on luxury and benchmarking against the lesser Honda. Just joking, but all three do appear to be in one of the images.

Stop getting your panties in a bunch.. I know what the RLX is being benchmarked against and trust me I read very well and have provided good comments to this site. What I hate is when people are quick to attack, I realized after posting that they were all accords, but obviously I couldn’t delete my post.

No need brother.....I did the same thing......I saw that rear quarter shot, one I never saw and it looked so different I thought it was the RLX and posted too quick before I could look at them against the other pictures. I was thrown off by that trunk..........
