#NYIAS: The 2018 Acura TLX Gets A Refresh And A More AGGRESSIVE Look — Is It Winning YOU Over?

Could it be? Could it BE?!

Is Acura starting to get its groove back? It appears that things are starting to bubble at the Japanese sub-brand of Honda. How do we know? Well, just take a look at the 2018 Acura TLX, which made its debut at the 2017 New York Auto Show (NYIAS).

If you look at the details all around, it seems that Acura is starting to pay closer attention. While we've been calling the brand out for "phoning it in" for years now, it's clear that the Acura team is not settling for "business as usual."

Just look at the details around the exterior, from the front grille to the rear diffuser. Check out the interior and the seating, which features nice stitching and piping.

Let us know what you think of the snaps below, Spies!

This is the TLX lineup that should have been introduced 3 years ago. And this mid-cycle refresh should have been much more, more power, more performance, etc. But, it is what it is and this is an improvement in the right direction. Disappointed there is no Type-S variant.

Agreed. This is what should have been done the first time around...

It looks better than before, but overall it's pleasant, generic, inoffensive, dull, and forgettable.

merges nicely with every Japanese / Korean car out there. I think we just have too many manufacturers falling all over each other to be honest.

I'd be OK losing Peugeot, Citroen, Opel, Renault, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Chrysler, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Audi, Seat, and Subaru.

Cross shop Honda and Acura and no one in their right mind will pay the difference to own the Acura badge.
