  Japanese quality, German performance - 2007 Acura RDX
  By Glen - December 24 - 2:06 pm

  The 2007 model drives and handles like a 5 series BMW. The seats hold you securely on spirited curves. Later models were softened up and "family car" dumbed down. If you want fun, get a 2007. If you want a polite quality family car, get a later model.

  Hard to Beat an Acura - 2007 Acura RDX
  By Acura Lover - October 11 - 2:00 am

  This is my third Acura. I traded a BMW X3si for this RDX. I had the BMW only 5 months. Before that, I had an Acura TL. Always wanted a BMW until I actually owned one. Proved to myself I am an Acura fan for life. This is my first 4-cyl car. Turbo makes it feel like a V6. Comfortable ride, quality interior expected from an Acura. Tech pkg is nice, but could be much improved. Feel like I went downhill from the 03 TL to the 07 RDX on that end. This RDX really makes me feel as though my TL got a face and body lift. Dont miss the BMW one bit except for the Bluetooth. I hate pressing the talk button for each and every command even my 03 Yukon doesnt require that.

  Love my RDX - 2007 Acura RDX
  By rcizme - May 25 - 3:01 pm

  Although some call it an SUV its not. I dont drive it off road and dont plan to but on snow covered mountain roads it out handles my 4x4 Explorer in every way. The SH-AWD is one of the best Ive ever driven. On performance, I didnt buy it as a race car but I drive over a mountain pass to work every day and this car doesnt work very hard climbing the grade AND with just over 50K miles, Im averaging 24 MPG. Im confused as to why so many complain about poor fuel economy. Im guessing that mileage figures vary with driving habits? Its not a race car... dont drive it like one.

  Best CUV out there for the Money - 2007 Acura RDX
  By ever_green - May 8 - 9:24 pm

  This car is great. Oops I mean SUV. Well same thing real for this "CUV". Sometimes you forget its an SUV with its excellent acceleration and sport suspension. You feel the road unlike any other SUV out there. It feels more like my friends BMW 3s. Apart from performance Acura offers excellent interior design with everything you need, really. Comfortable heated leather seats, Dual zone AC & so on...The super handling AWD also helps on snow and offroad. even though this car is not designed for offroading I still do it and it feels just as good as my highlander on dirt and light muddy roads. Only thing Im unhappy about is the MPG in hwy. I get 21MPG.

  2007 RDX with Tech Pkg. - 2007 Acura RDX
  By Eric - March 16 - 10:26 pm

  An exceptionally fun to drive small suv with technology that will make you grin. Abundant power that is enjoyable but takes some getting used to. The turbo feels well tuned and is mild at first then spools up to deliver smooth, lag free acceleration. Its Nav system and voice recognition software really work well. The stereo is so good youll be the envy of not just audiophiles but anyone with ears! Its better than the several thousand dollar aftermarket set up I have in my other vehicle. Basically, consider it an impressive blend of MDX utilty, TSX performance and RL luxury.

  Floor Mat - 2007 Acura RDX
  By Mark - February 21 - 10:17 pm

  This is my first and last Acura. At 5K the drivers floor mat was worn through. After some argument, the dealer agreed to replace it under warranty. The replacement lasted about the same. While the overall interior quality appears acceptable, the carpeting and floor mats are very cheap. Mileage is fair, but you must use premium fuel. For the money, the vehicle is not worth the price.

  The Little Things Add Up - 2007 Acura RDX
  By HondaMoCoFan - October 3 - 6:20 am

  I decided to trade in my TL for this because I wanted all wheel drive. I was disappointed to find out that the car lacked some features I thought would be standard across all models. Namely, the navigation screen was no longer touch screen (as my TL from a few years prior had been). I also found both the gas range prediction and mpg to be terrible. On a drive across the country in a torrential downpour, I checked my range vs. the nearest gas station. At the time (about 20 miles away), I had about 12-15 extra miles according to the trip computer. Suddenly, about 10 miles away it jumped to 9 miles and I wondered if I would even make it.

  Putrid gas mileage - 2007 Acura RDX
  By stevieharris - September 21 - 4:56 am

  Neat car, but stupendously bad gas mileage. We got 11MPG on the first tank, 13MPG on the second tank and have not hit more than 13MPG since. This is computing MPG the old fashioned way. Our local dealer (PA) has more than 20 of these on the lot unsold, they said that they "had deposits" on them, but they dont. I see why now. Like the car, but this gas mileage is just really, really, really bad.

  The good and the bad. - 2007 Acura RDX
  By johnnymauler - July 1 - 11:30 pm

  After owning this vehicle for a year I am already tired of the non responsive automatic transmission. I have driven manual transmissions for most of my life, but I wanted to have a SUV for the snow and portability. I have to say I love everything else about this vehicle. The handling is great, comfortable, roomy, tech package kicks, even the turbo 4 isnt so bad. But the paddle shifters and transmission are sub par. Shifts are slow and sloppy. This vehicle should have made with a 6 spd manual. Also the GPS is outdated.

  13.65 MPG - 2007 Acura RDX
  By betsy_me - June 18 - 1:23 pm

  Car is great BUT gas mileage is terrible. Dealer says to wait until 2000 miles before bringing it in, but we have 1300 miles on it coming back from a trip north, and we cannot break 14 MPG. Most of the drive was highway.
