Um? Also sans the crease over the front wheel well and this one has more of a bangle than the RLX... SO ITS NOT THE RLX... Acura is just making a stronger family design language like all the other luxury brands.

that's sort of what I was thinking too when I first saw this set of photos, but after looking more carefully I think in my haste I was probably tricked by the different camo pattern. As somebody else pointed out, the front clip is virtually identical apart from the 10-LED headlight array seen on the RLX concept and the earlier prototype spy photos.

I doubt the TLX would use the EXACT same front bumper design as the RLX.

Sorry to confuse everybody.

Hmmm, you're right. But why does that G37 make this RLX look smaller than the one in the other spy pics? Trick of the eye (or camo).
