Looks a bit like a two-door TL from that angle.

it is doubtful there will be a RWD version since the coupe will probably share drivetrain with the sedan which is traditionally safe FWD. But it works well

I think an optional SH-AWD system would be cool on the coupe

The article notes that the car would most likely have the 300 hp 3.7 V6 from the MDX. I'm sure if they brought back the Acura CL with this car, it definitely MUST have SH-AWD!

Not bad. If they do have a RWD (or maybe an AWD) version, I'd be interested. Make mine red (of course).

Pretty aggressive for an Accord. I hope they put it out.

The side reminds me of AM DB9 + BMW 6 series.
