  Best Luxury - 2001 Acura RL
  By Gwen Titsworth - September 12 - 2:56 pm

  I have owned many different luxury cars Lexus, Jag, etc., because I like to try out the different varieties and to say I have driven them, but my Acura has beat them all hands down. I went to buy a Mercedes and was disappointed in the test drive. For the heck of it I tried the Acura RL and bought it. I usually buy a new car every two years but I hated to let this one go. I am planning to buy another one though this year. The car I would buy beyond the Acura is a Bentley Cont. GTS.

  Style/Value/Smart - 2001 Acura RL
  By Kevin - September 19 - 10:44 am

  Looks good, drives great, easy on your wallet. What more do you want from a large sedan? As with all Acura models, the features and controls are easy to find and operate. The leather seating is very comfortable and resilient. The Navigation system, although archaic compared to later model Acuras, is simple to operate and precise. Although the fuel economy isnt great, its very comparable to other sedans in its class. And besides, for what it lacks in saving you at the pump, it more than makes up for by saving on mechanical breakdowns/repairs. If youre looking for a sharp, comfortable and reliable luxury sedan, the Acura RL should be on your list to look at.

  Rock Solid - 2001 Acura RL
  By topoff - November 12 - 3:43 pm

  Excellent car - best car for long trips - quiet and easy to drive. Performance is adequate as is the mileage. Zero repairs other than normal oil changes etc. I do my own work and regular maintenance is easy. Deal visit (1-brake flush) was good - price and service. Special note - Acura paint is great it just doesnt get rock chips like other cars I own.

  I am a very happy owner! - 2001 Acura RL
  By jamesh - May 22 - 2:00 am

  Its a car with safety in mind. no CD changer in dash to play with while driving! no extra horsepower to encourage you to "drive for fun"! And you can park it on street in NYC,JC,Newark since Acura is not a so- called prestige brandname mostly target by car-thefts :-( And its priced (both MSRP and dealer discount)much lower than LS430. And I love its slim figure and classic looks, comparing with the most other models that are "big-ass" impression.

  Great car for the price - 2001 Acura RL
  By FabianBG - October 22 - 2:00 am

  This car is a true comfort to drive in at any speed. You can very easily accelerate onto the freeway and feel like you are floating at 65 MPH over the road. Very reliable and no major problems after 36,000 miles other than a fog-light going out.

  Better than Mercedes - 2001 Acura RL
  By scox - May 6 - 2:00 am

  There is no doubt that the RL is far superior to the E class Mercedes. It has much more power and has a smoother ride than the E Class.

  Love my RL. - 2001 Acura RL
  By RiceOwl - April 14 - 2:00 am

  Great drive if comfort is your primary concern. Very reliable and handles like a charm. As a medium size luxury car it is a great value and is probably one of the more underappreciated cars in this class. People get in my car and sometimes mistake it for a Mercedes. Must be the black on black.

  2000 ACURA RL REVIEW-W/ NAG SYS - 2001 Acura RL
  By MIKER - March 24 - 2:00 am

  To make this short this is one sweet auto. The refined ride, controls access, view of the road, adaptable seat position, and fit and finish are better than cars costing much more. I bought this one used but it feels, smells, and acts like new. The navigations system is pretty good but all computer programs have there inherent weaknesses unless you design it yourself for your own likes. My home street address is not in the database yet I still got good computer tracking one street away
