Acura is introducing something new for the 2018 model year: the Acura TLX V6 A-Spec. It's the highest trim level for the TLX and comes with exclusive features like bigger wheels and wider tires, ventilated front seats, and remote engine start. The A-Spec doesn't gain anything in the performance department over the next lowest trim level, but does it really …
And yet, it STILL has the ugliest face this side of Gene Simmons.

It's not classically handsome, but it doesn't hold a candle to the blazing ugliness coming out of Toyota / Lexus, or Nissan, these days.
This thread is relevant to my interests as we begin to shop for a replacement for DW's beloved TSX. I suspect we'll find more value elsewhere, though.
This piques my curiosity. The original A-Spec packages were all dealer add on bits (ground effects, wheels/tires, suspension and badges) that actually gave them more grip to go along with the aggressive looks. This looks like an actual factory built trim level instead.
Yes, A-Spec is now a factory thing. I was at some of the early press introductions for the A-Spec dealer-installed parts. Fun events.

I sold a bunch of them, that's for sure.
Should have come with a sport exhaust or something like that - something that makes it more than just an appearance package. Maybe option for OE Summer-only tires.
And yet it is another nose heavy FWD....Can you spell UNDERSTEER???? I'm sorry....not,but what in the H is the fixation with THIS....please speak to me....I had a Saab 99 in the winters of 76-78 in NEOH with nothing but street...wait for it...........Semperits.......remember those? Yes a great car for the region/season...but beyond that, not very inspiring from an enthusiasts (corner carver) standpoint. And yes I own the ultimate Saab from GM...'03 Aurora 4.0 as we speak
