Acura's New TSX could be a CTS-X.

Acura made their world debut of the all-new second-generation TSX sports sedan along with the appearance of the redesigned RL luxury performance sedan at the New York International Auto Show today. With new engines, refined drivetrain, and Acura's latest Keen Edge Dynamic styling, the all-new TSX and RL highlight a new direction for Acura sedans: they look like the Cadillac CTS.

This is not really a bad thing - the CTS and all its variants are great cars. And it's to Caddie's credit that they could elicit the sincerest form of flattery from an automaker like Acura.
