  Wonderful driving experience - 2008 Acura RDX
  By DWB - April 12 - 2:15 pm

  I purchased the RDX 2 weeks ago with 7 miles on it. It now has nearly 1000 miles with combined city and highway miles. The day after I picked it up I drove 550 miles and averaged 23 MPG. 90% of the time it was downpouring rain in the mountains of WV and VA. Ive been averaging 18 MPG around town however I do not sit in traffic very much. I had a Civic and it was a great mode of transportation. However, the RDX is a driving experience with immense pleasure from the XM radio and sound system to the handling and comfort. Also got the protection package, wheel locks and tow package.

  So far, the best car I ever owned - 2008 Acura RDX
  By JohnnyV - March 30 - 11:01 pm

  I traded in a 2005 Subaru WRX STi which I bought new after months of research. It was terrible. Ive had the RDX a month and its an extraordinary vehicle. For someone w/ low back problems the drivers seat/position is perfect, unlike the poor seat in the Toyota RAV 4. Ill check back in a few months.

  Very happy with purchase - 2008 Acura RDX
  By Tyler - March 28 - 7:49 pm

  It has great acceleration and hugs the road very well. The suspension is stiff and reminds me of my old RSX-S (could be good or bad depending on the driver). Ive driven from TX to CA in this and was not fatigued. All in all, it is a pleasure to drive. I do extensive research whenever I buy pretty much anything and I found this to be a better buy than the competitors.

  Try It Youll Love It! - 2008 Acura RDX
  By CHdriver - March 11 - 11:38 am

  The RDX was the last car we looked at before we were going to commit to an BMW X3. Are we glad we looked! Absolutely great price and deal, and so much car. Saved at least $7,000 of the X3 and we still got everything we wanted.

  A Lot of Car & Fun - 2008 Acura RDX
  By CHdriver - March 6 - 8:51 am

  Have owned the car for almost 3 weeks. Wife & I been looking at BMW X3 & Highlander (go figure). Looked at the RDX as a lark! Both of us immediately fell in love with it. It offered so much for the price.

  Fun, fun, fun! - 2008 Acura RDX
  By Josh B - February 29 - 6:24 pm

  Ive had my RDX one month now, and I absolutely love it! It really moves and sounds wonderful doing it. The interior is very inviting in taupe with better than expected room for four adults. The heated leather seats offer comfort and support in the turns, which is a good thing, because this machine loves the curves. Best car Ive owned!

  I love it - 2008 Acura RDX
  By Quiltdiva - February 23 - 7:12 pm

  I have been looking at the 2009 Nissan Murano, Mazda CX-7 & 9, Subaru Tribeca and 2008 Nissan Rogue. The RDX is just right for me. All those wonderful luxury features plus not so huge. It drives really stiff, more like a sports car and the seats are wonderful. I made the right decision for me.

  So happy, best decision I have ever made - 2008 Acura RDX
  By bballfreak150 - February 20 - 10:26 pm

  Went from a 2001 Lexus IS 300 to a 2008 RDX. Couldnt be happier, all of the things I loved about my IS with the room and comfort of an SUV. It is actually faster than my old car and gets better gas mileage too. Im averaging just over 22 mpg. I love the AWD, turbo is amazing, and its just really fun to drive. If you are looking for a vehicle that is fast and fun to drive, gest good gas mileage, and have enough room to carry all of your gear then this is the perfect vehicle for you. It was the best decision I have ever made.

  What a great car. Cant beat the bang for the buck. The tech package is amazing, the acceleration is great and the car is useful and fun to drive. The only two negatives are the gas mileage (I only get about 20 mpg) and the fact that the front passenger seat isnt power. Otherwise, I cant complain about one thing!

  RDX is a rocket! - 2008 Acura RDX
  By Steve - February 15 - 10:23 pm

  Love my RDX. It has exceeded my expectations. Last two cars have been BMWs 3 & 5 Series and will never go back. Acura gives a great car for the money and very solid. Much more reliable than the BMW and performs better. Gas mileage isnt that bad (about 19) considering its a 4000 lb car and it flies!
