Anyone else notice the handle on the underside (inside) of the trunk lid. You can flip the trunk lid closed and never touch the paint. Being extremely anal about the paint and appearance it's a little feature like this that shows the TLX was designed by people that appreciate cars.

This feature have been on the TL for at least 2 generations. A great feature.

I'm like that too. My RSX had the same type of handle to close the hatch. So the idea has been around.

Yes, very well thought out. What's odd is on the Accord, the 2013 (first year of the 9th gen) they put the handle inside the trunk. I got a 2014 Accord, and they stopped installing the handle! The indentation is there for it, but no handle.

Strange they would remove it from the Accord. I had a 2004 Accord and I seem to remember it having it.

I have it in my 2005 TSX as well so it's nothing new.

Love it, but I never pull it hard enough! It always ends up bouncing back lol
