Acura wants you to imagine what the corporate bigwigs will be driving in 2020. They're answer comes in the form of the "Advanced Sedan Concept" straight from Acura's own LA-based design team.

When the concept was initially uncovered our first reaction was shock and amazement followed by a touch of nausea. Once we got past the distinctively un-Acura like front clip we started warming up to the concept behind the concept. But overall there seems to be too many nautical cues for our tastes.

The high beltline may thrill buyers at the turn of this millenium but we're unsure if it will stir emotion in 20 years time.

More pics and the press release are posted below the fold.
