I've got a 2010, and my brother has a 2008. In comparison, the 2010 has more tech in it (USB port, auto lights, standard rear view camera) as well as a nicer ride. at first, I also wasn't a huge fan of the new look, but in the year that I've had it, it has grown on me. And the power of this car is astonishing, its incredibly fast, and not just for a suv.
I'd rather buy an Infiniti EX37... 0 to 60 in 5.9 seconds. You get a lot more bang for your money. Infiniti has better technology, reliability and a sportier drive. With that said, Infiniti's come from the same car company that makes the mighty GTR.
i agree with dacewhodavedunn acura is is more flare, modern and good looking interiors. The first time i sat at the back seat and my dad was test driving the rdx turbo it was very powerful and the seats were very comfortable.
I don't get why people complain when it comes to gas... I mean its a SUV for crying out loud. And every one compare to the CRV is the best with gas well thats because its the most boring to drive probably it looks like a VAN probably drives like one too.
the older model front looks better and plus awd was standard, i don't understand why they took of awd from base model. glad i got a new 2009 tech model $37,100 with AWD standard. A 2010 SH-AWD with tech package is 38,707. Same car, yet more expensive :/
I hope he took a vacation to the center of the earth, LOL
I actually like the RDX, especially the turbo 4 engine. most of its competition who offer 4 bangers only have around 150-160 hp and about 170lb torque(the definition of gutless), this thing has 240hp and 260lb ft, more than some standard v6 engines.
Not my favorite, but i don't really find it ugly. There's better competition out there (apart from pricing) but the acura grill really isn't bad looking. It looks best on the ZDX though..
Ugly!?!?Have you seen Nissan X-Trail?That's ugly!This one has very dynamic design,and wonderful interior,it's not the best in it's class,but not the worst!
Acura is very under rated compared to others such as BMW, and AUDI yet both those brands can not touch the reliability and interior design of any acura. They are amazingly built precsion built machine. Everything from styling (except the new tl) and reliability, interior/exterior design technology, they are the best!
@5Qu1Z33r i dont think he has, interior design is dated and simple, lmfao! audi and BMW are famous for having one of the best interior (best interior all time for audi) but what i just dont like that much that they are complicated which is bad if you in hurry but good cuz you got many choices but it gets easy once you get used to it
@hazemvirus The new models are complicated, can't argue with that. Since i own E39 M5 - no complications for me, it's as simple as you need :) BTW, I used to own '94 VW Passat and it's interior was better than half of what Japan makes today :)
Do you know anything about cars? this is just your hopeless opinion, The facts are BMW and Audi are rated very high in interior design but they have bad ergonomics and sub par reliability, Acura's have futureristic interiors that are bad in my opinion but they have good ergonomics and very good reliablity. those are facts except my opinion about Acura's interior design.
I know quiet alot about cars, and I a true petrol head. BMW and Audi use very good materials but they interiors all look dated, and simple and drab. It's personal opinion, but the acura/honda interior is highly rated above bmw and audi.
Ever drive the 08 TL- Type S? or 04-07 TL? ya thtose are performance cars.
As for BMW, They look nice perform well cost a shit load and break down a ton, not to mention the VERY VERY expensive parts. You can literally drive the shit out of honda's acuras and they dont break!
Actually BMW being unreliable is the thing of the past. Read reviews on JDpower and Edmunds, BMW quality and reliability went up the roof. Not to mention the 4 years of free maintenance they provide.
Hell, even the old/new M3's have one of the highest resale of any vehicle.
ROFL, and anyone with a brain knows the TL Type S is NOT A PERFORMANCE CAR, FWD for the loss. The TL type S gets spanks by the 335i and G37, even the Is350.
rock head. there are performace cars that are FWD like the integra type r back in 97'. the tl type S can go againts with the 330i and the g35. the new tl will be a type s version. it maybe in AWD.
no one cares about that shitty integra, or integras in general. FWD =/= cannot compete with a refined RWD like BMW or Infiniti unless you're an old granny living somewhere in Alaska.
And no idiot, there is no Type S for the new TL, its just SHAWD.
@davewhodavedunn not sure what Audis you've been in that look dated but the new A4, the current A6, and obviously the new A8 we posted a video on are all very modern and top of the class in terms of interior quality.
Acura is a step down slightly but it also costs less with a lot more standard features and is still a nice entry level luxury car. WITH better reliability.
All the materials in audi's are great, I just find the ergonomics and shapes of the peices are bland and plain. Where acura uses more flare, and more modern, futuristic looking interiors.
Actually im from the greatest country in the world. Canada. I am in the auto industry as a automotive journalist. I have tested and driven many cars. Think what you want my immature friend. You make me laugh!
