  Surprising disappointment from Acura - 2007 Acura RDX
  By Acuralover - February 13 - 6:50 pm

  Ive owned 5 Honda and Acura products before, and this is a HUGE disappointment!! The 4-banger feels sluggish from a standstill (although its reasonably quick after the initial lag). The engine is very noisy during acceleration, with a lot of turbo whine (even under some cruising conditions) which "wears down on you" after a while. And I was SHOCKED by the horrendous fuel economy. At 16 mpg overall (mix of hwy/city), its exactly the same as my other vehicle: V8 powered Lexus GX470! Isnt this supposed to be a 4 CYLINDER, SMALL SUV? Helllooo!!

  Love It !! - 2007 Acura RDX
  By Tami - January 1 - 12:33 am

  Love the RDX/ Tech Package. Ive had the car for a month now and love driving it!! BUT Im getting really bad gas mileage 12.5 mpg in the city really bad at average speed of 14 mph. Other than the poor gas mileage I love everything else about the SUV.

  Great Ride - 2007 Acura RDX
  By Henry FL1 - November 30 - 7:45 pm

  Other than gas mileage, its a fun car to drive. Notice how I said "car" - it does not drive like a SUV at all. I considered the Honda CRV loaded, but it lacked some-like no useable armrest etc.

  Not for the daily commuter - 2007 Acura RDX
  By JimTex - November 18 - 10:23 pm

  We bought this car knowing that fuel mileage was not its strong point, but have averaged about 19 mpg (mostly city). My wife loves this vehicle because it is incredibly responsive and handles as well as the BMW we traded in. The seating position is nice and high, but without the huge vehicle to go along with it.

  Im in love.... - 2007 Acura RDX
  By FTNSS1 - November 14 - 10:04 pm

  I traded an 05 TSX for the RDX - needed more room for gear. Not only is the RDX just the right size, its actually MORE fun to drive!! The SH-AWD system produces such grip and control that it almost feels like youre driving a sports car. Ive had no problems/repairs, the mileage is acceptable for an SUV (about 21 mpg), and the fun factor is a 10! The ride is firm, but comfortable. The interior is great (and versatile), the technology package is great.

  Fun to drive but not impressed! - 2007 Acura RDX
  By dk168 - October 25 - 12:50 am

  Have had the car for almost a year now. Not impressed by Acura’s quality. Dashboard started to rattle after four months of having the car now is getting worse, both corners rattle at cooler temperature. Even the sunroof rattles during bumpy road. Turbo lag is definitely noticeable at low RPM with A/C on. I have to put the gear in the Sport mode to minimize the turbo lag when traffic is in a stop-and-go condition this seems to help. Ride is a little stiff (comments given by everyone who had ridden in my car). Poor gas mileage. I am getting averaged 18 MPG with roughly 60% hwy and 40% surface street driving. Okay, with all the negatives mentioned, I must say the car is a fun car to drive.

  Engine troubles are a surprise - 2007 Acura RDX
  By CD - October 18 - 7:58 pm

  I love everything about this car except that I have been into the shop with engine troubles about every 2-3 weeks. The engine will suddenly rev uncontrollably and the turbo has stopped working 3 times. This car is downright dangerous to drive without the turbo support to get you moving. The dealer hasnt been able to figure out what is wrong yet -- just keeps erasing the codes which make the problems go away for a short while. Sadly, its time for a trade-in after only 5 months. So much for Acura quality, which is one of the main reasons I traded in my Saab 9-5 for this.

  "A Well Kept Secret" - 2007 Acura RDX
  By J. Wood - October 17 - 11:55 am

  I knew this was the car for me the first time I test drove it. I tried other small SUVs in this range, i.e, Lexus, Murano, and there was no comparison. This car has a solid compact feeling. I was not aware of this car. Someone talked me into seeing it. Its a quality car and handles well in bad road conditions (heavy rain storms and wind). I love the turbo power when I need to accelerate in traffic. The interior is classy & the techology is state of the art. I highly recommend this car. Its fun to drive - I look forward to driving everyday.

  Love this vehicle - 2007 Acura RDX
  By kcosta - October 11 - 2:42 pm

  My husband needed a new car for work to haul people around. This vehicle is what we were looking for. It has enough luxury to impress but is still not over the top. Great performance. Although it is small, it is spacious inside. After getting used to a WRX we wanted something that did not lack in the performance department but didnt break the bank. This vehicle is perfect.

  Had questions initially - 2007 Acura RDX
  By CAS - October 7 - 3:43 pm

  Had initial questions primarily due to problems with bluetooth, poor gas mileage and limited carrying capacity. But now after several trips and three defective cell phones, believe I made the right choice in the RDX. Gas mileage on last trip was over 24 mpg, seems to improve with each trip. City is routinely 17 mpg. 4th cell phone was the charm, bluetooth now works flawlessly. Love the hard rear deck when using as a sedan, and sport handling is terrific. Wifes Infiniti M35 screen graphics for navigation and rear camera is sharper and clearer, but after looking at several competitors, all have some compromises, but like RDX the best.
